California is a beautiful state and the railroad short lines of the state operated in some beautiful scenery. Add the scenery with colorful short line locomotives, this makes for a book with lots of color variety. Most short lines in northern California were lumber-based haulers and hauling lumber is what most of the photographs in the book will show. Not all photographs are in color, even though most are, older subjects were photographed in B&W for the time period.
