Product Overview

This is Volume 2 of An Ultimate Pictorial Study of the Rio Grande Southern, designed to supplement Dorman's The Southern: A Narrow Gauge Odyssey. It is divided into three twenty year sections with hundreds of rare, usually never before published scenes, designed to bring the RGS to life from 1890 when Otto Mears took serious action until 1951 when the line was abandoned. Many of the photos have been enhanced by double printing on the duotone process. The problems and triumphs of each twenty year section are captured and then enhanced by narratives from railroaders who recorded their experiences. With maps. 344 pages with index. Oversized (12 x9 ).
