The Estes ULA Vulcan is a striking 1:100 scale model of United Launch Alliance’s next-generation heavy-lift rocket. Designed for hobbyist launches, this model rocket faithfully captures the visual essence of the real Vulcan with its sleek profile, detailed graphics, and iconic silhouette. From the Centaur-inspired upper section to the sculpted side structures, it’s a display-worthy tribute to modern American aerospace engineering.

Ready to Launch, Built to Impress

Perfect for beginners, the Vulcan requires only minimal assembly and is ready for the launch pad in just three easy steps. Simply swap out the included display components for flight-ready parts, load your recommended engine, and you're set for takeoff. It’s compatible with Estes D12-3 and E12-4 engines, soaring to an estimated altitude of 300 feet.

Dual Purpose Display + Launch

More than just a flying model, the ULA Vulcan doubles as a premium display piece. The included desktop stand and mock display engines allow you to proudly showcase the rocket at home or in the office. Whether on a shelf or in the sky, this rocket delivers on style and performance. Its bold design, featuring ULA branding and a stylized flame motif, ensures it turns heads wherever it’s placed.

Precision Recovery with Dual-Parachutes

The ULA Vulcan features a uniquely engineered two-parachute recovery system that ensures both safety and spectacle. A 24-inch parachute gently lowers the main body of the rocket, while a separate 9-inch chute independently recovers the detachable nose cone. This staged descent not only adds realism to every launch but also improves landing stability and minimizes damage on touchdown.

Designed to mirror real-world recovery systems, this dual deployment enhances performance and recovery success—especially in wide, open launch fields. Fully compliant with NAR safety standards and compatible with Estes E Launch Controllers or Pro Series II systems, the Vulcan’s recovery system brings advanced functionality to a beginner-friendly model.

The Railway Labor Act is one of a kind. In fact, it is a common toast to suggest that one live long enough to understand the Railway Labor Act (RLA). Railroad journalist, economist, former rail regulator, and rail-labor expert Frank N. Wilner offers a straight-forward and very readable history, evolution, description, justification and critique of the RLA in this book.Understanding the Railway Labor Act is aimed at two audiences.

One is those seeking to learn more about rail labor history, the mechanics of rail labor law, and how railroads and their multiple unions bargain collectively under the RLA's provisions. The second intended audience is those familiar with the RLA, but seeking a reference work providing greater detail of the law's provisions and how they impact negotiations at the national and local levels.Included are separate chapters that discuss labor protection in the railroad industry, secondary boycotts, and the crew-consist dispute - how many crew members are required to operate freight and passenger trains, which, for decades, has flared, simmered and flared again.

Also explained and analyzed are interest-based bargaining, alternatives to the RLA, and congressional intervention in railroad labor disputes.Wilner, the author of four other educational books on railroad economics and regulation, includes hundreds of endnotes, which cite congressional action, court decisions and news accounts.

Railway Age magazine once described Wilner as the only individual who has viewed the railroad industry as a carrier official, a labor official, a regulator and a journalist.Included in the book are essays in defense of the Railway Labor Act, written by veteran practitioners: Former CSX chief labor negotiator Ken Peifer, United Transportation Union General Counsel Clint Miller, arbitrator Frank Quinn, and National Mediation Board member Harry Hoglander.

Also, Larry Kaufman, a former senior executive at the Association of American Railroads, Burlington Northern, and Southern Pacific, provides an introduction.

Unification of New York's rapid transit lines started on June 1, 1940. After a decade of rough-and-tumble politics, the Inter-borough Rapid Transit and the Brooklyn and Manhattan Transit properties had been bought by the city.

The properties were then combined with the municipal Independent Subway system. The combined operation was the New York Transit System run by the Board of Transportation. The board dated back to 1924 and, as an arm of the city government, was controlled by the mayor.

The Board thus lacked the independence needed to handle fundamentals such as setting fare levels to assure adequate income and establishing spending priorities on a strictly business-like basis. A fight by local politicians to retain this political power would massively consume the energies of the city, state, labor and civic groups throughout the 1940s and beyond.

The focus of this book is on the events of the 13 year period between unification and the transfer of the city's transit system to an independent entity-the New York Transit Authority.

This book will describe the Union Pacific Railroad's design, construction, and operation of its eight successive Omaha passenger stations of the later nineteenth century, and two different Union Passenger Stations, built in 1899 and 1931 respectively.

An end summary will also describe historic preservation efforts from 1973 to the present that saved the 1931 Union Station from destruction and helped make possible its use as the Durham Western Heritage Museum beginning in 1975.

Omaha was once the nation's fourth largest railroad center and the 1931 Omaha Union Station was built in part to satisfy the demands of local businessmen and the increasing public demand for improved passenger train service to the city.

Chapters cover the time period from Omaha before the railroads up to the present use of the station.

Having originally gone to work for the Union Pacific Railroad in 1973 as a clerk at company headquarters in Omaha, Edwina "Curlie" Justus later became a qualified train engineer at age 34 at North Platte, Nebraska, and retired from that position in 1998.

Now, in her own words, Edwina recounts her many real-life experiences operating over the UP mainline out of North Platte. By overcoming sexism and racism on the job through tenacity and kindness, Edwina became one of the pioneer women to enter into what had previously been only a man's world.

This book is illustrated with photos of UP trains and locations from the same era as when Edwina worked for the railroad.

This book covers historically the building of the routes and all the important events that happened to the Los Angeles Terminal Railroad, the San Pedro, Los Angeles & Salt Lake Railroad, and followed by the Union Pacific Railroad.

This Volume covers the early days, the steam locomotive era, and up through the coming of diesel motive power. Featured pictorially in action views are motive power and equipment from early steam, late steam and diesel freight and passenger trains plus stations, yards, roundhouses and shops.

Contents:

• Los Angeles Terminal Railroad, pp. 7–14
• San Pedro, Los Angeles & Salt Lake Railroad, 15-36
• Union Pacific Takes Control, pp. 37–154. This book is an overview of the history of the routes followed up with B&W photographs (many by Duke) and extensive captions.

Union Pacific was a latecomer to the Los Angeles Basin, not becoming part of the Southern California railroad picture until 1901, when E.H. Harriman and W.A. Clark agreed to share ownership of the San Pedro, Los Angeles & Salt Lake Railroad, which had taken over the property of the Los Angeles Terminal Railway.

Completion of the line between Salt Lake City and Los Angeles enabled UP mainline freight and passenger service to reach California. The history of the SPLA&SL, which became simply the Los Angeles & Salt Lake Railway in 1916, and then disappeared into the UP, is complex, and the Los Angeles end of the railroad especially so.

It is all here, from the many complications at the ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles, to the suburban branches, and the complex passenger arrangements needed to serve the territory. The rivalries with Santa Fe, Pacific Electric and Southern Pacific were expressed in many conflicts and eventual agreements, through Depression, war and many postwar changes and adjustments.

Historical information is included up to and beyond the merger of UP and SP, extending to recent years. The book contains a great wealth of photo illustrations, many from Union Pacific files, the majority never before published. It provides Union Pacific enthusiasts as well as those interested in Southern California railroading with much fascinating and valuable history and information.

The company archives are B&W photographs. Color photographs are from recent history. The cover illustration by John R. Signor shows the City of Los Angeles arriving at Riverside, California in the 1940s.

Straight from the Union Pacific Museum Archives, this book illustrates the very best camera work of UP company photographers. Many of these photographs have remained unseen for over 50 years. The railroads photographic staff sought unusual scenic locations for remarkable views of the earliest UP stream-liners, the oldest and newest steam locomotives and the modern look of handsome diesel and gas-turbine cabs.

The horizontal format combined with large images (usually one per page) of steam, turbines and passenger units make this a great book especially for the model railroader. Morning Sun Books, hardcover with dust jacket, 128 pages, 8.5 x 11 x .5 in., all Color photographs with captions.

The Union Pacific Company is proud of its railroad and saw the color photograph as the best way to show the world the scope and efficiency of its operation as well as the beauty of its territory served in the American West.

It was prolific in its advertising and generous in its distribution of the all-color calendars to on-line customers and stations. Likewise the calendars could be found far away and made the Armour yellow train of the Union Pacific familiar artwork adorning the offices of shippers from Philadelphia to Pensacola.

Many of these treasured efforts are contained in this 128-page book.
