Includes rosters for steam and diesel locomotives for both railways as well as 30 pages of schematic diagrams of the locomotives. With detailed maps showing the layout of the plants and the industrial area around Lorain, track maps, and bibliography. Invaluable resource for any modeler or industrial archaeologist. 183 pages.
