WPLives 26th Jun 2021		From the Publisher Two experienced and expertly knowledgeable authors present a rich trove of photographic images of this section of railroad, many from highly skilled railroad photographers of the West, most notably Richard Steinheimer. The informative coverage of the entire Coast Line, presented in detailed captions to the photographs, makes this a complete and fascinating story.



WPLives 26th Jun 2021		Review This new book is a wonderful addition to the history of the line, in that it fleshes out the visual coverage, and adds small pieces of history unable to be fit into the previous book. One of the best aspects of this new book is the many pictures reproduced from the camera of Richard Steinheimer. There are 85 such photos in the book, almost 15% of the total...As with all of John Signor's other works, it is a very well done piece of railroad history; and Thompson's historical touch adds measurably to it as well. -- Jeff Saxton, in Model Railroad News, March 2000 ✔︎ Helpful Review?



WPLives 26th Jun 2021		Review The book is a treasure trove. Other railroad publications seldom even come close to providing such detailed and comprehensive photo coverage of a single rail line, the territory it served, and the trains that ran there. -- Richard Hendrickson, in Railroad Model Craftsman magazine, June, 2000 ✔︎ Helpful Review?



WPLives 26th Jun 2021		Among the most scenic and storied parts of the far-flung Southern Pacific system was the Coast Line between San Francisco and Los Angeles. John Signors book about the Coast Line was published in 1995. That work presented a broad account of the history and development of the line, but inevitably much had to be omitted. The present volume enlarges and extends the story of this fascinating stretch of the SP.
