Norfolk and Western Railway A and J Class Locomotives

Well-done pictorial history of the Norfolk and Western's Class J 4-8-4s and Class A 2-6-6-4s. The book discusses the wonderful combination of speed, power and durability that these locomotives demonstrated and examines their origin, construction and operation, explaining how they lasted long after other steam engines had been put out to pasture. Photos show the engines in action with plenty of trackside structures, depots and scenery to inspire the modeler. 64 pages.
