Tail End

From the editors of Passenger Train Journal, the 2025 Passenger Train Annual covers your favorite trains from yesterday and today. Featuring: Dearborn Delights - by Kevin McKinney This edition’s extended cover feature looks back at the colorful variety of passenger trains that called at Chicago's Dearborn Station in the postwar era, including Erie Railroad, Monon, Chicago & Eastern Illinois, Chicago & Western Indiana, Santa Fe, and more!

From Santa Fe's celebrated Chiefs to lowly commuter runs on Chicago & Eastern Illinois, Dearborn was a pre-Amtrak kaleidoscope where trains serving Florida, New York City, St. Louis, Kansas City, Indianapolis, downstate Illinois, Detroit, Toronto, and Montreal made their continent-wide connections. The LRC Era - by Kevin J.

Holland In the early 1980s, Amtrak and VIA placed Bombardier's “Light, Rapid, Comfortable” LRC trains in service. Amtrak's New England LRC trial didn't bear fruit, but the distinctive low-profile trains became fixtures on VIA's Corridor operations in southern Ontario and Quebec. It's been 25 years since VIA's LRC locomotives were retired, but, more than 40 years after their debut, the LRC cars are only now facing retirement as new Siemens trains are poised to take over.

Recalling the first Passenger Train Annual - by Bill Anderson It's been 50 years since publication of the first Passenger Train Annual in 1975. Bill Anderson was part of the editorial team, and recalls how he traveled across North America in search of that first edition's cover photo. Softcover 8 1/2 x 11, 116 pages

Passenger Trains of Denver: The Decade Before Amtrak 1960-1970 by John D. Mummert. This book provides an informative review of passenger train service to Colorado's Mile High City in the last full decade before the start of Amtrak in 1971. Synopsis histories are provided for Denver Union Station and for every passenger train from six major railroads (AT&SF, CB&Q, CRI&P, D&RGW, MP and UP) that operated into Denver during this era.

A brief overall operational history is provided for each train, plus sample equipment consists from different years-illustrating the rise and fall of some of the most famous passenger trains to operate across the western United States. Also included is a timeline showing the gradual demise of train service to Union Station, plus an example of why Passenger Service to Denver became a matter of nostalgia versus profitability.

More than 50 black and white photographs by the author and others add to this tribute to the last years of commercial passenger train service to the base of the Rocky Mountains. South Platte Press, softcover, 64 pages, 8.5 x 11 x .25 in., B&W photographs, DUS Timeline, bibliography.

Steve Goen has been the author of a number of popular railroad book titles focusing on Texas and the Southwest published by Four Ways West Publications. Steve is now publishing his own titles, and this is the first of them about railroad passenger service in Texas. The second title he is working on is on the Rock Island in Texas which should be available soon.

Cotton Belt's passenger service ended long before the beginning of Amtrak in 1971. The Cotton Belt didn't have the presence in Texas that its parent, the Southern Pacific, or other prominent Texas-serving railroads such as the Santa Fe and Missouri Pacific did. This book fills a need for readers who want to know more about this lesser-known passenger service.

This title covers the history of the passenger service from an era of B&W photography and very little color photography as the trains stopped running many years before Amtrak. There are color photographs, but they are only about 10% of the photo selection, though. Many trains were of a branch line nature and 'doodlebugs' are quite prominently featured.

Maps and Timetable reproductions are in color as they were back in the day. There are some schedules presented as well as some press articles to complete the book.

Steve Goen's second book on Texas passenger train service features the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific. In this book he features the operations of 14 different Rock Island passenger trains that once operated in the Lone Star State. The Rock Island had three major routes that crossed Texas. The Golden State Route cut across the most northern part of Texas at about a 45 degree angle on its way from Chicago to Arizona and California.

The Choctaw Route also crossed the most northern part of Texas on its way from Memphis to a connection with itself at Tucumcari, New Mexico. The last route, the Twin Star Route, ran north to south entering Texas from Oklahoma and connecting Fort Worth, Dallas and Houston. This was the most prominent Rock Island route serving Texas.

Chapters include the Graham Branch, the ACR Line, and trains such as the Short Line Flyer, Arizona Limited, Texas Rocket, Choctaw Rocket, Memphis-Californian, Oklahoma Rocket, Fort Worth to El Reno RDCs (rail diesel cars), Choctaw Rockette (an RDC run), Twin Star Rocket, Imperial, Cherokee and the Golden State.

The most prominent Rock Island train serving Texas was named for Minnesota, the "North Star State", and Texas, the "Lone Star State", as the Twin Star Rocket. This train was one of the most glamorous passenger trains to have ever crossed the Mid-West. Operating daily between Minneapolis and Houston, the Twin Star was one of the most famous, yet little known streamliners that served Texas.

The chapter on the Twin Star Rocket alone includes 51 extremely rare B&W and Color photographs between the trains' premiere in January 1945 and its final run in September 1966.

The Pennsylvania Railroad built Pavonia Yard in 1883 on an almost north-south alignment in East Camden, New Jersey. Over time the PRR purchased additional land and expanded the yard and added shop facilities.

Later the traffic levels increased and the yard was converted to a hump yard. In 2011 and 2012 the yard was converted to a flat switching yard. The yard is still in use today.

The book includes photographs and diagrams from the early era of the yard to the current era. B&W photographs and diagrams supplement the text and four pages Color photographs are included on the covers.
