| | 10. |  | Amtrak (Mbi Railroad Color History)
from MBI
Price: $24.39
Customer Review:
For someone who has many books on Amtrak, this one is a treat. All the pictures are in color. They are up-to-date and complement the text perfectly. The cover pages show an Amtrak map from 1972 and another for 2004. For a recent book there is still plenty of red hoods and candy stripes. The text is... more info
