This is a comprehensive look at the rolling stock of this trans-continental system, chiefly during the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s. Included is everything from the best cars on the Canadian Pacific to the lowliest stock car.

This first of two volumes covers passenger cars and non-revenue equipment in more than 300 vintage color photos.

Boxcars, reefers, stock cars, gondolas, hoppers, flats and cabooses—they're all here in full color, expertly captioned. More than 300 views.

The steam, diesel, and electric fleet of the N de M (National Railways of Mexico) is examined in more than 250 vivid color photographs taken by the author. From 4-8-2's to Geeps, Centipedes to F-units, operations of this giant railroad are detailed.

This is an electic look at Ontario railroading in the late 1950s, including CP, CN, TH&B, ET, eclectic lines, equipment and railroad ferry operations. Included is a rare 1940s look at Ontario Northland steam and sidetrips to other provinces.

Reg Button was a very active photographer, capturing day-to-day railroading and every unusual event in the spit of Ontario land that extends toward Buffalo, New York. Of course, CNR, CPR and TH&B are represented along with C&O, Wabash/N&W, and NYC, but expect to see visiting power from roads as diverse as UP, B&LE, IC and B&M.

The final glorious decade of Canadian National Steam, as seen through the eyes of some of North America’s most talented color photographers, is presented here in this first of two volumes. Steam operations in Newfoundland, New England, Quebec, and Central Ontario are all showcased.

Scrutiny of CNR steam westward from Ontario continues in full color in this exciting sequel to the best-selling first volume.

The final glorious decade of CP steam in New Brunswick, Maine and Quebec is showcased in this volume.

CP steam is chronicled in and around Montreal before venturing into southern Ontario and west through the Prairie Provinces to British Columbia.

The majestic scenery of British Columbia provides a theater for the trains of CP, CN, PGE and smaller roads during a period when the last of first generation power worked side by-side with new six axles.

The traction systems that once served Cambridge, Cornwall, Dundas, Ft. William, Guelph, Halifax, Hamilton, Kitchener, London, Montreal, Oshawa, Ottawa, Port Arthur, Quebec City, St. Catharines, St. John, Sudbury, Toronto and Windsor are all scrutinized in rare color photographs.

This new book presents a broad spectrum of CPR stations and lineside structures, from the urban grandeur of Montreal’s Windsor Station and other important terminals to isolated rural outposts across Canada. Also includes CPR bridges, tunnels, snowsheds, water tanks, hotels and marine facilities.

A coast-to-coast sampling of freight yards, engine terminals, roundhouses, shops, and lineside structures. Coverage of rural stations is continued from Vol. 1, with emphasis on those in Ontario.

Examine the freight and passenger cars of the smaller roads of Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, Quebec and Ontario from 1951 to 1990. QC, TH&B, QNS&L, ET, and even some private owner equipment is shown, but no CP or CNR.

In this book are the freight, passenger, and non-revenue equipment of the shortlines and regional roads of western Canada – but no CP or CN.
