Description
 
A comprehensive history of the railroad freight car, illustrated with 530 photographs, drawings, and engravings.  Contains plans, diagrams, and detailed specifications for model-builders.  The author, John White, forever changes the freight car's lowly image. Including hundreds of historical photographs and detailed blueprints, The American Railroad Freight Car establishes the sophistication and expertise that marked the development of freight cars in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. White offers detailed accounts of technological developments and examines lesser known aspects of everyday freight service such as yard management, train operations, and the origins of the interchange system. Paperback, 656 pages, 530 photos and drawings.
