Epilogue In Search of the Great Steel Fleet
In this thoroughly revised and expanded second edition of New York Central's Great Steel Fleet, author Geoffrey H. Doughty chronicles the glory years of one of the finest railroad passenger operations in the United States.
Through engaging text and virtually all-new photographs, the author examines the postwar renaissance and ultimate twilight of the Great Steel Fleet. Return to that period of America's history when "First-Class" meant more than just a slightly wider airplane seat, and when "On Time" meant at the station, and not within ten minutes of it.
