Description: New 12/21. Continuing his series on passenger service on major railroads serving the Lone Star State, author Steve Goen turns his attention to the Burlington Route with this brand new 184-page hardcover. The company’s Fort Worth & Denver operated over 1200 miles of trackage within the state, from Texline in the extreme northwest corner (where the mainline continued as the Colorado & Southern to Pueblo and Denver) across the state through Wichita Falls, Fort Worth, and Dallas to Teague, Houston and Galveston. Other cities such as Amarillo, Childress, Lubbock, Plainview, and Abilene were served as well. Goen begins with early service and continues with chapters on service over each line by train number. Burlington-Rock Island trains such as the “Red Head,” “Pioneer Zephyr,” “Sam Houston Zephyr,” and the notable “Texas Zephyr” receive their own chapters. This is a comprehensive work that is profusely illustrated with motive power; consists including mixed trains, motor cars, and streamliners; stations; mail service; and maps, timetables, advertising, and other ephemera. B&w and color illustrations. This is a laminated hardcover that is printed on gloss paper. New shrinkwrapped copy. Retail is $69.95.
