The late years of steam railroading in America - 1955 to 1960 - are documented in this book. Black-and-white photographs, made at night, capture the drama and energy of the great Norfolk & Western trains in action. Here too is the trackside rural American life in the 1950s.
From 1955 to 1959, O. Winston Link travelled up and down the Norfolk and Western railroad, taking pictures of the trains, the towns and the people who lived and worked there. This book contains day and night photographs, with a text on the railroad's activities, Link's achievement and his life.
