Norfolk & Western ...Steam's Last Stand

by Mallory Hope Ferrell

Norfolk & Western ...Steam's Last Stand, focuses on the final decades of steam locomotives on the Norfolk & Western (N&W) railroad, particularly the "golden years" from the late 1940s to 1960, with a look at the later revival of some engines. This hardcover book features numerous photographs of N&W's powerful steam engines, like the J, A, and Y classes, as they hauled coal trains before the final end of steam operations in 1960.
