About This Item
Morning Sun Books. Hardcover. New. As kid from Minneapolis, the Milwaukee Road had quite a presence in the Twin Cities (now ""The Cities"") and was one of my favorites. The selection of photographs include the Milwaukee's eclectic fleet of diesel locomotives. Pictures of Pig's Eye Yard, St. Paul Union Depot, the Minneapolis Depot shared with the Soo Line and Rock Island plus pictures from the southern Minnesota branch lines bring back memories. Out west the Milwaukee continues to the Pacific coast across the expansive prairies and through the forests with many pictures of bridges, tunnel portals and depots. A complete list of tunnels on the Milwaukee with altitude and length is included. Beginning in Minnesota and ending in Washington State this title is a nice color tour of the great Milwaukee Road. Contents: A Brief History of the Milwaukee Road, pp. 3-5, Minnesota, pp. 6-56, South Dakota, pp. 57-61, Montana, pp. 62-100, Idaho, pp. 101-111, Washington State, pp. 112-128. Take a ride on the Olympian Hiawatha from Minnesota to Seattle in this colorful book. Stations, towers, and yards are passed on the way west both in electrified territory and territory without wires. Hardcover with dust jacket, 128 pages, 8.5 x 11 in., Color photographs with captions.

Terms of Sale
Arizona Hobbies LLC
I reduce shipping for books that weigh less than 1 lb. with packaging. International shipping rates are quoted for a 1 lb. book. International orders that weigh more than 1 lb. will require additional shipping fees.
All books are shipped sealed in plastic to help prevent damage. Sturdy boxes are used often with bubble-wrap and additional padding. Thin titles may ship in a sturdy mailer with cardboard reinforcing. You will not receive 'rounded' books from Arizona Hobbies as you will from Amazon.com with their shoddy packaging.
A a bar code label with USPS a Tracking/Delivery Confirmation number is applied to your shipment. You will be advised of via email of the tracking when your order ships. USPS Media Mail (books, DVDs, CDs, maps) transit time is almost as good as UPS Ground today. Using a bar code label helps move the mail more quickly.
I've only had only six lost and three damaged shipments out of 20,000+ since 1999. This includes International shipments. I use a freight forwarder for International shipments. Canadian shipments bypass the USPS and go directly to Windsor, Ontario via my freight forwarder. It may take up to 2 weeks before Canada Post tracking information is available as we must consolidate orders to forward.
Defective DVDs will be replaced by the same title if available. Since most of my books are in NEW CONDITION and still in the printers plastic shrink-wrap, opened and thumbed through titles become used and a 20 percent re-stocking/used charge will apply plus the shipping costs incurred.

Michael Bond - the man behind Paddington Bear
“All the same ... it’s a very important name. And I don’t expect there are many bears in the world called Paddington!”
A lonely toy bear on an empty shop shelf on Christmas Eve in 1956 first captured the attention of Michael Bond, who kindly shared Paddington with the world.
