Quaint and charming pleasure trains proliferate, such as the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad, which crawls up squealing flanges along a narrow ledge 400 feet above a river, in the Canyon of Lost Souls. From the beautiful and comfortable red and stainless steel Canadian Pacific streamliner to Southern's famous Chattanooga Choo-Choo, America's railroads have survived and prospered against the odds in an era of air travel. Innovative technology, such as cars with body-tilting mechanisms on Canada's Light-Rapid-Comfortable, combines comfort with speed as trains are able to negotiate curves faster. Consolidation of railroad companies have made them more efficient. Freight trains  criss-cross the countryside, carrying more than 850 billion ton-miles per year, bringing to mind old President Williamson of the New York Central, saying, 'Look at those high cars roll: finest sight in all the world.'\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Calibri;font-size:1.0em;color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;\"\u003eSuperb illustrations help to depict the story of the world's most important railway systems.
