Steel Mill Railroads of Chicago and Northwest Indiana in Color from Morning Sun Books is a full-color look at many seldom-photographed industrial lines. The largest concentration of steel mills and their associated support industries are in the Chicago and Northwest Indiana region. This title by noted railfan photographer John T. Eagan closely examines the steel industry in and around that area, with complete coverage of the locomotives, specialty cars, and facilities that help to make steel and its byproducts. The famous Hot Metal Train is covered in detail. Most of the photographs were taken within the confines of the mills themselves and show the daily operation of the steel mill railroads! For fans and modelers of heavy industrial railroading and steel industry scenes, this book is a must-have. Steel Mill Railroads of Chicago and Northwest Indiana is one of many Morning Sun all-color books covering multiple railroads. Hardcover, 128 pages.
