Mixed Train Daily A Book of Short Line Railroads by Lucius Beebe. 1961 reprint of the 1947 First Edition. Handsomely done collaboration between author (Beebe), photographer (Clegg) and artist (Fogg) that brings local American branch line railroads to life once again. The book’s concern is the little railroads of homely destinies, the trains of yesterday that somehow managed to survive into the middle of the 20th century. This record of that era, lovingly written and wonderfully painted and photographed, has stood the test of time and become a collector’s item. The book embraces every narrow gauge then in operation in the US, covers every section of the country, and includes over 300 lines. Also includes an assortment of excellent maps, line drawings by recognized railroad artists, a glossary, bibliography and index. (Beebe met Fogg in NYC at an ALCo party shortly before leaving for the West. This is said to be the first book that used a Howard Fogg painting on the cover.) 368 pages with index. There is wear to the dust jacket and some light foxing on the the first few pages. A used book that has been read in good condition for its age
