Express, Mail,
& Merchandise Service describes rail express service and
merchandise traffic on railroads from the early 1900s through
1960s when railroad personnel handled packages and merchandise
— everything from baby chicks and cornflakes to money and
machinery — and got them to their final destination. A wonderful
historical reference for modelers and railfans alike.
This book covers:
- Depots, freight
houses, and terminals.
- Dedicated trains,
special cars, and delivery vehicles.
- Train operation
and car movement.
- And much more!
