Post subject:  Steam Locomotive technical books

We have just gotten the second printing of four significant steam locomotive technical books. These are fine-quality reprints of some rare and informative books concerning the operation and maintenence of steam locomotives. We have:<p>(1) CharlesMcShane's "The Locomotive Up to Date"<p>(2) "Fuel Economy", the bible of hand firing a coal burner, given by many railroads to new hire firemen.<p>(3) "Modern Locomotives" from 1914<p>(4) "Oil Firing the Steam Locomotive" a great little oil burner manual.<p>Go over and have a look. These are good books for anyone interested in steam. Scroll down the main page and click on the "technical books" line. Hope you enjoy it!
