Published by Lakme Press, Box 10380, Chicago, IL 60610. A nostalgic account in words and photos of the Pullman system during the 1920-1955 period. Much of the text deals with the development of the routes of major railroads. The 300 train photos feature the locomotives (the chief object of rail fans' affection). This is a great reminiscence of the fine trains Empire Builder, Broadway Ltd., California Zephyr, Northerner, Mohawk. A 90 page section locates all Pullman-carrying trains on a March 1952 midnight, and describes the consist, diner hours, setouts. A unique reference that will bring tears of regret and envy to many an airline traveller. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
