'The Southern Pacific Trackside at Transition' is a personal pictorial of the face of railroading during the transition years of one of the West's great railroads. As a youngster, the author, in the company of his mother, traveled the system in search of photographic locations and interesting power. The author includes in this look at his lifetime of photography several other railroad companies and short line railroads that he covered during his travels. Through his photography, the author gives you a glimpse of railroading in the west. (Amazon)
