The book chronicles 15 railroads. "Most of them have vanished, having been swept up in a new wave of great mergers that began in the 1960's and reached fever pitch in the 1990's. A few survive with their long-established names, personalities and 'classic' images more or less intact ... Read about each railroad's notable accomplishments, its famous passenger trains, its failures as well as successes."
