Description: RailroadTreasures offers the following item: Chicago Burlington & Quincy In Color Vol 1 by Michael J. Spoor Morning Sun Books Chicago Burlington & Quincy In Color Vol 1 by Michael J. Spoor Morning Sun Books Hard Cover with Dust Jacket By Michael J. Spoor - Morning Sun Books Copyright 1994 128 pages The main focus of this all-color book is the motive power and trains of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad immediately after World War II and into the early 1960s. This is that wonderful transition era when active steam was being phased out and replaced by diesel locomotives which were more efficient and less expensive to operate. The earliest color shots included in this volume date back to November 1945. The trackage in the five states of Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Minnesota and Wisconsin was officially called "Lines East of the Missouri River," and this is the CB&Q to be covered in this book. Any book covering "Lines East" of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad should start in Chicago and go "Everywhere West." This volume of CHICAGO BURLINGTON & QUINCY In Color will take a photographic look at Chicago Union Station, Cicero, LaGrange, Western Springs, Naperville, Eola, Aurora, Rochelle, Oregon, St. Paul, Mendota, Galesburg, Centralia, Quincy, St. Joseph, Burlington, Red Oak, Pacific Junction and Council Bluffs. This all-color journey, featuring over 200 previously unpublished photographs, captures the character and spirit of active steam in its final hours and the arrival on "Lines East" of the first generation diesels.
