This book has alot of great information and some extra stuff This book has alot of great information and some extra stuff, but If you are looking for a book with more than 2 pictures (front & back cover only), this is NOT it. I would have liked to see some good choice pictures from the obscure industrial trackage that is described to know where it might be located.. Five Stars Terrific read, a must for anyone interested in SoCal railroading!. Amazon Customer said Five Stars. Great compilation of information Invaluable resource!
