The Boston & Maine Railroad has long captured the hearts of
rail enthusiasts, and its locomotives are models of the majesty,
power, and romance of American rail. The Boston & Maine was a
railroad dynasty running through Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and
Maine, and many still remember hearing the whistle blow as a Boston
& Maine locomotive spewing smoke and steam pulled into the
station.
Boston & Maine Locomotives, the third volume in Arcadia's
trio documenting the Boston & Maine Railroad, is a history of
the locomotives that powered New England's most dominant line. The
Ten Wheelers, the Mastodons, the Pacifics, and the other classes of
locomotive are seen here as they pull passengers and freight
throughout the Northeast. The Boston & Maine was one of the
last railroads in the area to continue naming its locomotives, and
those engines, from nineteenth-century steam to twentieth-century
diesel, are recorded here. The Portland, the Newburyport, the
General Sherman, and more ride New England's rails once again in
Boston & Maine Locomotives.
