Quarto, orange cloth (hardcover), 190 pp. Very Good, with foxing (age darkened spotting); in a Very Good dust jacket with foxing and light edgewear. From dust jacket: The steel bridge across the Missouri was finished and the Northern Pacific's Engineering Department decided to put it to the acid test. Eight of the road's heaviest 4-4-0s were sent out onto the main span blanketing the track on the bridge from one end to the other. The bridge held! "One cannot but wonder what thoughts passed through the minds of the new bridge" muses Engineer, Author George Abdill, just as if he didn't know. A working locomotive engineer on the Southern PAcific, Portland Division, Adbdill knows railroading. If ever a book is to be the "compleat railroader," this one is it. In this, the fifth of his railroad pictorial histories, author Abdill has collected photos from a hundred dusty archives. Many of the photos exceed or approach the century mark in age, most have never been published before, all are rare. These pictures, combined with Abdill's delightful round house story telling and his unusual talent for reciting history accurately, yet interestingly, tell this story as it never has been told before.
