White River Productions. Hardcover. New. This title generally has one large image per page. As this is a larger format book, the images are quite large. The photographs are sharp so there is a lot of detail in them to investigate. There are a number of locomotive illustrations in color which are very nice to give you an idea of how colorful the early locomotives were. Each one seems to be its own work of art. It was a glorious period that has been termed the days of ""wooden cars and iron men."" Today it is difficult to even comprehend the tremendous amounts of energy, manpower and money that went into constructing the Denver & Rio Grande into and across the Rocky Mountains. The courage, determination and sheer guts of such an undertaking are impressively apparent today on the two remaining portions of three-foot gauge trackage out of Durango, Colorado and Chama, New Mexico. By 1883, William Jackson Palmer's ""Narrow Gauge Transcontinental"" mainline stretched 771 miles from Denver, Colorado to… Read More

White River Productions. Hardcover. New. This book tells the story of the narrow-gauge Eureka &, Palisade and its successor, the Eureka Nevada. Persevering through floods, fires, and the ebb and flow of the mining industry it served, the E&P was born in the bonanza era of Nevada mining and ran until the Great Depression and declining metal prices shut it down. Before that end, it hauled millions of dollars in gold, silver, and lead through the sagebrush covered hills of Nevada, cementing its place in the annals of great narrow-gauge railroads. The E&,P used everything from brand new, ornately-painted Victorian era locomotives and cars, to a motley collection of second-hand, third-hand, and home-built equipment to soldier on in the 1920s and '30s. The saga of the E&,P is told in exquisite detail in 10 chapters of comprehensive text, 450 photos and illustrations, 41 maps, and 18 equipment drawings. Also included is a complete and detailed equipment roster, extensively illustrated. Contents: Part One:… Read More

White River Productions. Hardcover. New. This book was a massive project by the author and includes B&W photographs from the early days, Color photographs from the later days and color maps to help tell the story of Georgia-Pacific and its railroads. ForestRails is a story of railroads and the role they played in the growth of Georgia-Pacific, a major forest products company. From the early beginnings, railroads have been absolutely essential in the delivery of raw materials and shipment of finished products of the forests. Such was the case with Georgia-Pacific's railroads. Just as man does not live on bread alone, railroads could not survive without freight to haul. Thus it is necessary for this story to also tell the parallel stories of G-P's acquisitions that included the railroads. This story is an important part of American business history. By 1900 lumbermen had recognized the efficiency of a steel wheel on a steel rail and the number of logging railroads grew rapidly. The coming of the… Read More

White River Productions. Hardcover. New. This title is filled with photographs, captions and text. The work of many photographers from north to south contributed to make this title a nice book. A number of maps augment the text. A few, much older photographs in the B&W era are presented, but 95% of the photographs and illustrations are in Color. There are quite a few depot scenes, too. This is a good 'overview' title of this former, important American railroad. The GM&O and predecessors operated many passenger trains, and they are seen here, including plenty of ""Doodlebug"" photos. Roster data for all equipment is included, but the text is so small you will need a ruler-type magnifier to preserve your eyesight. Doesn't White River know their audience? Make the text larger even if that means adding a few pages to the book. This new title is three books in one. First, it's a history book that covers the development of the postwar GM&O railroad through the mergers of Gulf, Mobile & Northern, Mobile &… Read More
