By Richard R. Wallin - Paul H. Stringham - John Szwajkarc

Excellent Condition with jacket; Golden West Books copyright 1979 240 pages

With more than 355 illustrations; maps; reproductions; roster of motive power; bibliography; index. From dust jacket notes: "The Chicago & Illinois Midland Railway packs all the power and punch of a big time railroad into capsule form, for this common carrier operates only 121 route miles of track and displays its diamond herald on only 21 diesel locomotives. For Chicago-based Commonwealth Edison, the sole owner of the Midland, these are ideal specifications; because the railroad exists to roll Illinois coal and unit trains of Western low-sulphur coal to Havana for the barge run up the Illinois River to Chicago...."
