Appalachian Coal Hauler - The Interstate Railroad's Mine Runs and Coal Trains by Ed Wolfe. Ed Wolfe, who wrote the very popular The Interstate Railroad - History of an Appalachian Coal Road, published by Old Line Graphics in 1994 and very well received, has now zeroed in on the Interstate mines and the trains that served them, how the switching was done, trains assembled, etc. This will be a super book for those interested in this region, in coal mines and railroading, and in the way a coal railroad really operated. A must for those who have the first book from 1994. First hand research, with many rare and unusual photos. Modelers will appreciate the data that will enable them not only to build accurate mines and tipples, but to serve them with the appropriate trains. This type of operation would be applicable to almost any railroad operating in the Appalachian region. Hardbound, 160 pages, over 175 illustrations. Retail $29.95.
