The Locomotives That Baldwin Built: Contatining a Complete Facsimile of the Original History Of The Baldwin Locomotive Works, 1831 - 1923

by Fred Westing

History being forged is what author Westing brings you in every phase of Baldwin progress. Here are more than 300 photographs, many never before printed, linked with the long out of print "History of the Baldwin Locomotive Works - 1831 to 1923," to which Westing gives colorful meaning as he brings the story up through the last days of steam to the Engine 76150, the final and highest serial number.

I didn't actually read this book as the text is really only stuff mechanics and engineers would understand, also the print is painfully tiny. The photos are superb and there's tons of them so I really enjoyed looking at this book, so many weird and wonderful engines! I'd give this 5/5 stars for the photos.

The text isn't much, but the photographs of Baldwin steam, electric, and diesel locomotives are fantastic.
