Sobre este artículo

*The American Railroad Passenger Car recaptures the lost, but not-too-distant past when 98 percent of all intercity travel in the United States was by rail. Documenting in extraordinary detail - ingenuity, splendor of the classic trains as well as the rattle -clatter,dust, cinders of early rail travel. A record of changes in taste -technology with clarity- precision,explaining the methods of construction of wood, iron, steel, aluminum cars. Tracing - evolution of wheels & brakes, dining cars, sleeping compartments, the revolutions in taste & technology that dramatically altered the appearance of the railroad passenger car over the century and a half that it dominated American travel. Extraordinary resource for railroad hobbyists Detailed plans / diagrams accompanying the text make it possible for model-builders to reconstruct many famous passenger cars themselves...Appendixes contain biographies of coach builders and designers; numerous tables comparing models, materials, and prices; a chronology of passenger cars; an annotated bibliography.-Oversized hardcover former library book in acceptable condition. Dark blue hardcovers - silver engraving -lettering are good, boards do show fading at the edges. Spine seems loose but still together. Pages are good clean, unmarked front end paper was used to repair front cover hinge so is missing -repair by the library. Dust jacket is good and is well protected by bro-dart cover. Book has several black ink stamped from the library, on inside covers, page edges, handwritten library notations on first page upper corner.
