nice book
Celore
The pictures are pretty good, but there are several of the same train on the same day. Most of those were note worthy of several pages. I kept looking for the one photo that would make the book worthwhile....never found it. The photo narrations were pretty weak as well(no insight other than location). The biggest disappointment was that the bulk of the pictures are of trains in Chicago or somewhere in Ill. As I like to look at what is behind the train almost as much as the train itself, this was annoying. Maybe the name of the book should have been "My Chicago pictures of trains that made it to St Paul."
