Seller's Description:
Fine in Fine jacket. 8vo. xiii, 205pp, index, bw ills. Or black cloth in pictorial jacket. Slight toning to front free endpaper, and page edges. A first hand account of railway life before and during the transition from steam to diesel. The author spent 50 years with the Santa Fe in positions ranging from assistant right of way agent to chief engineer, and his story, recorded in railwayman's language and told from their point of view spans the gamut of the subject. Whether writing of camp cooks or transverse fissures; Buda cars or legal cases; rail links or washouts; his remarks are apt colorful and amusing, and carry the weight of experience and authority. Also serious accounts of accidents and strikes.
