Summary: Documents every steam locomotive that traveled the B&O!
Comment: William Edson's dedication to realizing a difficult goal is evident on every page of this volume. He has obviously spent many an hour in the archives of the B&O and other institutions. Every steam locomotive owned by the B&O that ever traveled anywhere on that line is documented here - over 7,000(!) locomotives! For each loco, there is provided the original roster number (and renumber where applicable), the builder, serial number, date built, and date of disposition (nearly always the scrapping date). Small reproductions of shop drawings with technical data of the major classes of B&O steam locomotives are for the most part, adequately reproduced, considering that many of the originals had to have been very fragile due to age. A photo section provides well-reproduced illustrations of the lesser-known classes of B&O steam locos.

This volume is NOT recommended for the new railfan. It is recommended ONLY for experienced and knowledgeable steam locomotive fans and rail historians, particularly those with an interest in the B&O.
