Thank
you for taking a look at the railroad books that I am selling. I have built up quite a collection over the years, to the point
that I have run out of bookshelves. If I am going to keep on buying and reading, I need be selling too. Please check back
from time to time, as I will be adding more books as I finish with them, or decide that books that were 'keepers' are no longer
quite so essential.
Because many of the books were not written for railfans, are from other countries, or are fairly
old, I have tried to give rather detailed descriptions. The following notes will help in reading the list:
AUTHOR:
Where a book has more than one author, the name shown is the first listed on the title page.
DATE: Latest date shown
on title or copyright page. Where no date is shown, I have estimated the decade.
CONDITION:
N Bought new by me,
so likely in better condition than if bought used
U Bought used, but no unusual deterioration
1 Ex-library
2 One
or both covers detached, but included
4 Dirty from use
5 Water damage
6 Paper cover deteriorated
7 Corners worn
8
One or both cover hinges weak
9 Significant flyleaf notes, underlining, or marginal notes
Unless noted otherwise, all
books have all pages and all pages are readable.
CODES:
HB Hardback
LL Loose leaf, usually post binder
PB
Paperback
SB Spiral bound
P Photograph(s)
O Other illustration(s) (drawings, paintings, etchings, reproductions of
timetable pages, etc.)
M Map(s)
E Equipment diagram(s)
R Roster(s)
Feel free to email me with your own list
of railroad books that you are selling. Also, after you order for yourself I would appreciate it if you would pass the
word about this website on to a fellow railfan.
Thanks again, and good reading!
