Train country : an illustrated history of Canadian National Railways

MacKay, Donald 1925- (Author). Perry, Lorne. (Added Author).

Summary: This book illustrates the history of the Canadian National Railways created after World War I with a combination of resources from five financially troubled railroads. Canadian National played a central role in the population growth of the more remote northern areas of Canada, moved passengers between major cities in style, and was instrumental in the movement of goods both to market and to the country's smaller towns. The story is told by engineers, porters, signalmen and others.
