No locomotives evoke the railroad's golden age quite like the steam locomotives that plied the rails before diesel-electric power took over. With the help of more than 200 modern photographs depicting restored and preserved steam locomotives today, this collection traces the evolution of steam power from the early nineteenth century right up to the present. Covering every prominent wheel configuration as well as shrouded locomotives, the photographs take in the grand geographic and technological breadth of steam power across North America and in Europe. All photos are accompanied by detailed captions identifying the locomotives pictured and explaining their roles in the history of American motive power.
