Excellent basic book that does just what the title says--it explains how a steam locomotive works, with easily understood text accompanied by drawings and photos. I have other books that explain locomotive operations, but this book is better illustrated so that it is easier to figure out just what the author is trying to explain. Highly recommended!
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
This book is excellent for all concerned with steam locomotives. I especially recommend it for the novice. All fans of the C & O railroad or superpower locomotives should have this book.
