Chicago and North Western's Many Faces from Four Ways West examines the railroad's operations across its entire system during the diesel era. From carrying passengers to coal, ore, intermodal, and general freight, the C&NW appeared in many venues, urban to rural and heavy rail to branchline. This iconic railroad hauled trains large and small, servicing huge industries and small-town team tracks. Focus is given to encouraging photographers to deliberately plan to protect their images from destruction for future enthusiasts to enjoy. Authored by former railroader and noted author Dean Freimund, this book is a must-have for railfans and modelers.
