Train buffs and colorists will love adding their own hues to this fine fleet of luxury railway cars–from the elegant cars of Europe’s Orient-Express, which catered to passenger comfort with deluxe dining and sleeping cars, to America’s Super Chief that ran on a transcontinental route between Chicago and Los Angeles.
Thirty drawings depict the interiors and exteriors of such famous trains as the multicolored cars of the Hiawatha, a passenger line traveling between Chicago and Seattle; the observation lounge on the Burlington Zephyr; and a sleeping compartment on New York Central’s famed 20th Century Limited.
