Summary: Well-Done Collection of B&O Photographs
Review: This is similar to other reasonably-priced books of railroad photographs published by Kalmbach. The pictures in this large format volume are all black and white, well-printed on slick paper, and feature informative captions. Its content covers the "heart" of the B&O's operations in the east - not just the Potomac Valley. The book will be useful to both historians and modelers as the pictures show the physical surroundings of the railroad - not just closeups of locomotives and cars. B&O in the Potomac Valley is recommended for those interested in the B&O, the "transition era" from steam to diesel power, and in coal-hauling railroads in general.
