Jim Shaughnessy is a revered name among railroad photographers.
This collection, the best of his work over a forty-year career,
features 170 duotone photographs taken between 1946 and 1988, with
an emphasis on the railroad culture of the fifties and sixties.
Jeff Brouws a railroad authority and photo historian has
contributed a biographical essay that traces Shaughnessy's
beginnings photographing steam locomotives in his hometown of Troy,
New York, to his documentation of the dramatic steam-to-diesel
transition, with an emphasis on the northeastern United States and
Canada, where the concentration of railroad action and often deep
snow resulted in beautiful and unusual images. Not just a
compendium of photographs of locomotives, this book covers the
whole railroad world the sheds, tunnels, viaducts, yard stations,
and more. It is a wonderful document of what is arguably
railroading's most compelling era."
