The Interurban Era

"The interurban was an American transportation phenomenon. Evolved from the urban streetcar, the interurban appeared shortly before the dawn of the 20th century, grew to a vast network of over 18,000 miles in two decades of exuberant growth, and then all but vanished after barely three decades of usefulness. But within its brief life span the interurban bridged the gap between a horse and buggy nation and a modern America that rides on rubber over endless lanes of concrete and asphalt. It changed the ways of rural life forever, and frequently set a pattern for metropolitan growth that continues even today."

Middleton, William D.

Virginian Railway

Reid, H.

This classic study of railroad stations, large and small, is once again available through a modern Kalmbach reprint. Invaluable for the railroad historian, the student of architecture and the transit planner (who might find the beauty in its pages worth replicating), the book examines every aspect of the design, construction, maintenance and utilization of railroad terminals. Chapters cover, among other topics, different types of stations (through, side, head, stub and small), waterfront terminals, the passenger terminals of New York City, terminals in foreign countries, terminal operation (including baggage handling, food service, and the role of the station master), and electrification. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos (some of heartbreaking loss, such as Penn Station) as well as blueprints and schematic diagrams (some folding out) of stations, train sheds and train yards. 410 pages.
