Staple bound issue from the large collection of a railfan collector and former rail way worker. Some wrinkling and minor creasing. Spots of foxing. May be tide marks, chips or other flaws: see pictures for details. We picture the masthead and table of contents for your convenience. The Rail Industry started to undergo vast changes in the early 1960's as the Interstate Highway system started coming into play. By the opening of the 1970's, trucking was making severe impacts into the freight income of train lines and two decades of mergers and acquisitions pared the rail industry down to its current shape and size. The pages of this magazine will document those changes in real time. Trains magazine covers the broad spectrum of railroading with authoritative content, dazzling photography, and a mix of content designed to appeal to everyone from the casual enthusiast to the seasoned professional railroader. Trains offers something for everyone who has a spark for railroading: Railroad news, insight, and commentary on today?s freight railroads, passenger service, transit, locomotives, technology, preservation, fan opportunities, and more. Trains is still published today, but their back issue list stops at 2004.
