This illustrated history provides a background of CSXs 25 years on the railroad scene, describing how the company came to swallow several legendary regional lines and merger roads. It examines CSX hardware, facilities and operations on more than 20,000 miles of trackage. Marvelous color photography. Hardcover, 144 pages.
