Central Vermont Railway: a Yankee Tradiiton, Volume III: "Austerity and Prosperity, 1922-1927"

This is the third of six volumes compiling a detailed history of the Central Vermont Railway, written by noted railroad historian Robert C. Jones. Covers the railroad and its steamship line, the numerous accidents, the growth of towns such as White River Junction and Burlington, the construction of roundhouses and repair shops, and the day to day management of the line. An interesting reminder that Vermont was once a bustling, industrial center in New England. Packed with black and white photos (of both the locomotives and the towns), maps, timetables, memorabilia, and index. 192 pages.
