BIBLIOGRAPHY 234
The definitive history of Louisville & Nashville passenger service spans the period from the booming Pan American era of the 1920s through the Amtrak days of the 1960s. Extensive original sources and an intimate knowledge of L&N operations combine to deliver the last word on L&N motive power and rolling stock, as well as a complete roster of equipment and reproductions of period advertising pieces. In addition, an entire chapter is devoted to modeling L&N passenger equipment and trains.
