Fred W. Frailey
In the years following World War-II, the combination of prosperity, a renewed love affair with the automobile, and the availability of commercial air travel contributed to the dwindling number of rail travellers. This title recounts the demise of the pre-Amtrak passenger train. It uncovers the reasons behind the disappearance of these trains.
