Seaboard Coast Line Railroad

Rating:
Summary: A good reference but could be better
Review: For me this book was a real let-down. It is well illustrated and obviously much research was done. However, I feel that it is a true shame that someone hasn't done a groundbreaking work on the Seaboard. To show what I mean, I point to "The Western Maryland Railway in the Diesel Era" as a comparison. In addition to high quality COLOR photographs, Diesel Era has chapter after chapter of thoroughly research text describing the operation and history of the WM. If someone would create a similar book on Seaboard it would sell like crazy...
