DESCRIPTION:
""the finest modeling oriented railroad book we have seen." according to A Customer. "We tend to assume Benchmark will provide top quality photo reproduction, paper, print quality, page design, and typography. The book justifies that assumption. We tend to assume any book by Benchmark will include an accurate history and comprehensive photographic documentation of the railroad it covers. It does."But The Pacific Coast Railway goes beyond that. It includes what may be the most extensive collection of photos, track plans, illustrations, and structure, rolling stock, and locomotive drawings to appear . "Five Stars" according to Philip Richard. Great book with good information. Much needed if you wish to model this narrow gauge Railway.. "A great record" according to Charles Terry Dooley. Gave it to my son. He and I have tried to trace the roadbed of this railroad for many years.
Also includes plans and photos of the line's cars and locomotives, diagrams of each turnout and line-side structure, and a milepost list with every bridge, fence and siding.. This book is ideal for modellers as it contains plans and photos of many of the PC's structures including almost all those in the San Luis Obispo yard
