Baldwin locomotives - Brian Solomon

Philadelphia-based Baldwin began designing and building steam locomotives in the 1830?s and gave the world many of its most significant and famous steam, electric, diesel designs. This full history of Baldwin is illustrated with a large selection of rare, superb builder?s photos and other publicity images from the Railroad Museum in Philadelphia. Technical histories are supplied for each locomotive, along with builder?s specs, and a history of how the locomotives were used by the railroads that brought them, making this a full and invaluable guide.
