LAST FEW BRAND NEW BOOKS

This is a book from
 a series of publications based on manufacturers’ and builders’ catalogs.

All too often the comment is heard that the photo captions in books contain no solid information. Often the reader can gather the same captioned info by looking at the photos themselves.

The new series is called Manufacturers’ Catalog Archive and it provides data and information right from the builders’ own sales and reference literature.

This book reproduces a Company catalog on their Western Dump Cars.  The catalog provides details on the construction of both the Western Dump Car and the Western Air Dump Cars. 

The catalog also looks at how the cars used in railroad service, including in railroad yard construction, railroad grade revision, railroad trestle filling, lengthening railroad sidings, railroad ditching and the disposal of locomotive ash.

In addition to railroad service, the catalog covers the use of these cars in hauling industrial waste, open pit mining, coal storage, pit and quarry haulage and levee and dam construction. 


The final section of the catalog looks at the various models of cars produced by the company, including photos and specifications for a variety of models from large 45 yard capacity cars down to small 3 yard capacity cars.

There is also a section on small narrow gauge cars, end dump cars and spreader cars.

This book is very well illustrated and is based on the carefully preserved original builder’s catalogs and has been digitally scanned.

Printed on high quality gloss paper and perfect for collectors out there.

Softbound, 8.5x11, 82 pages, numerous photos. Shrinkwrapped.

Note: There are several other new books listed in the “Manufacturers’ Catalog Archive”.
