While there have been many books on this subject, none have covered the Milwaukee Road diesel fleet in the detail and number of photographs presented in these two 268 page, vertical-format hardcover books.
The author has scoured the country, reviewing the negative and slide collections, to bring the best B&W and color diesel locomotive photographs to the Milwaukee Road enthusiast to be found between two covers.
