Description

This series of books, through the use of exquisitely detailed photographs, highlights many freight cars photographed in the mid-to-late 1930s in southern California. They are particularly useful to modelers as they contain many close-up views that were photographed for the purpose of making models, and thus are a fantastic aid in detailing models. In addition to the quality of the coverage, the photos are complemented by captions written by Ted Culotta that provide a wealth of information about the prototypes covered in the book. Volume Three is the first of what will be several on refrigerator cars, with Pacific Fruit Express and North Western Refrigerator Line receiving the bulk of coverage. 84 pages. $45.00
