Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Louis
-- History of the Dixie Line

From the Publisher, TLC Railroad Books:

272 Pages Hardbound with over 200 illustrations on 100 pound enamel stock NC&StL was owned most of its life by the L&N before being merged in 1957. Linking the Tennessee cities in its name across the Appalachians to the Southeast, powered by workhouse Mikados, fast Pacifics and large Mountains as well as the first 4-8-4s in the South, the line had all the attributes of a great trunk line hauler. Complete, detailed, superbly researched history 1840s-1950s. A must for NC&StL and L&N fans and others interested in the South.


Here are some reader comments:

  • "In one word: SUPERB!"
  • "...what a wonderful collection of photographs and other items... it really looks great..."
  • "You did a wonderful job! I really enjoyed it and learned many things I did not know about the railroad."
  • "You've certainly packed lots of valuable history and operational data about the road between the front and back covers..."
  • "It's fantastic. I never knew there could be that much information on the NC."
  • "This work sets a new standard of excellence in railway books. It deserves an award for publishing excellence. I have a huge railroad history library and this I rate among the Top 10 of that collection. Congratulations - it will be hard to top this!
  • "I can say it's everything I expected and more. I have run trains through
    Dickson many times and never knew there were engine facilities and
    more there... Mighty good job, Dain, mighty good."
