About This Item
The Railroad Press. Hardcover. New. Hardcover, 176 pages, more than 200 color photographs and maps. Freight train numbers and schedules. Enjoy a guided tour of Illinois Central's network of lines south of the Ohio River, from the 1960s to acquisition by Canadian National in 1999. From southern Illinois, through Kentucky, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana, enjoy more than 200 color photos of freight and passenger trains, stations, towers, buildings, and people, plus detailed maps and schedules. A few steam locomotives appear in this title - in color! Also quite a few passenger trains looking quite clean right up until the advent of Amtrak. Some photos include former GM&O power still in the original paint. Most images of IC power will be in the orange and white paint scheme, then the orange and gray paint will come in second place and the original and later all black paint will be about 10 percent of the photographs. There are many photographs of structures and locations. Color maps will show the track layout at junctions and yards. This is a very good publication for Illinois Central fans and those interested in railroading in the southern USA. Contents: Main Lines to Memphis, pp. 12-35, Kentucky Division, pp. 36-67, First Southern Main Line, pp. 68-89, Memphis, pp. 90-115, Main Line to New Orleans, pp. 116-149, Y&MV Lines, pp. 150-176.

Terms of Sale
Arizona Hobbies LLC
I reduce shipping for books that weigh less than 1 lb. with packaging. International shipping rates are quoted for a 1 lb. book. International orders that weigh more than 1 lb. will require additional shipping fees.
All books are shipped sealed in plastic to help prevent damage. Sturdy boxes are used often with bubble-wrap and additional padding. Thin titles may ship in a sturdy mailer with cardboard reinforcing. You will not receive 'rounded' books from Arizona Hobbies as you will from Amazon.com with their shoddy packaging.
A a bar code label with USPS a Tracking/Delivery Confirmation number is applied to your shipment. You will be advised of via email of the tracking when your order ships. USPS Media Mail (books, DVDs, CDs, maps) transit time is almost as good as UPS Ground today. Using a bar code label helps move the mail more quickly.
I've only had only six lost and three damaged shipments out of 20,000+ since 1999. This includes International shipments. I use a freight forwarder for International shipments. Canadian shipments bypass the USPS and go directly to Windsor, Ontario via my freight forwarder. It may take up to 2 weeks before Canada Post tracking information is available as we must consolidate orders to forward.
Defective DVDs will be replaced by the same title if available. Since most of my books are in NEW CONDITION and still in the printers plastic shrink-wrap, opened and thumbed through titles become used and a 20 percent re-stocking/used charge will apply plus the shipping costs incurred.
