"Down South" on the Rock Island Color Pictorial
Author: Steve Allen Goen
Price: $59.95
Since 1995, Texas Rail Historian Steve Goen has brought us the history of the Fort Worth & Denver, Texas & Pacific, Cotton Belt, Kansas City Southern, and the Santa Fe. Now, in his sixth book for Four Ways West, Goen features the Rock Island's colorful operations along the rarely photographed southern part of their system. See steam and early day diesels on both freight and passenger. Name trains like the TWIN STAR ROCKET, GOLDEN STATE, CHEROKEE, and CHOCTAW ROCKETTE. Doodlebugs on the JUNIOR ROCKET and LOUISIANA ROCKET, depots, passenger equipment, mixed trains battling the rugged 3.6% grades of the Texas Panhandle, and a variety of mainline and branchline freights. This is the first time such an in-depth book has dared to feature this almost forgotten part of the CRI&P.
