The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent condition, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments! 

Railways laid the foundation of the prosperity of Victorian Britain and have continued to be an important form of transport, though much has changed since the pioneering days of men like Stephenson and Hackworth.

This book tells the fascinating story of railways from the great days of the steam engines and the opening of the American West up to the latest monorail systems.

With full colour illustrations and an informative text, Trains covers many aspects of railway life–why the railways came, what made them successful and how they are changing.
