Working Steam: Vintage Locomotives Today

"Writer and photographer Hans Halberstadt invites railroad devotees to climb aboard some of these venerable iron horses in Working Steam. This treasury of vintage locomotives - with information on where and how modern-day travelers can see and ride the steam trains of old - presents a unique tour of restored and active locomotives from all over North America. Illustrated with more than one hundred full-color and archival images, and peppered with fascinating first-hand accounts of life on the rails from modern-day firemen and engineers, Working Steam is a photographic gallery of the living, working remnants of a bygone age."--BOOK JACKET.
