Regional Railroads of the Midwest by Steve Glischinski, part of the MBI Railroad Color History series, offers an engaging exploration of the unique and vital role that regional railroads have played in the heartland of America. Focusing on the railroads that operate across the Midwest states, this richly illustrated book provides a comprehensive look at how these smaller, often lesser-known rail lines have served as essential links in the nation?s transportation network. Glischinski combines his expertise as a railroad historian with vivid color photography to document the evolution of these regional carriers, from their formation to their impact on local economies and industries. The book covers a variety of regional railroads, from those formed after the consolidation of major carriers to short lines that have managed to thrive independently. With its focus on both historical and modern-day operations, Regional Railroads of the Midwest captures the essence of railroading in a region known for its agricultural and industrial significance. This book is a must-read for railroad enthusiasts, historians, and anyone interested in the resilience and innovation of the regional railroads that continue to play a crucial role in America's Midwest.
