I thought May 10th would be the perfect day to announce the publication of my new book titled Union Pacific and Its Predecessors<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This covers more than 150 years of Union Pacific history and includes the modern day railroad and most of its primary components (among the them Chicago & North Western, Missouri Pacific, Southern Pacific and Western Pacific)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you ask, ‘Why May 10th?’ then you will need to read the book! (See chapter 1, pages 16 & 17).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My old pal TSH (and Tracking the Light reader) made the cover photo of UP freights at Norden, on Donner Pass<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The book is available from Kalmbach Media at: https:\/\/kalmbachhobbystore.com\/product\/book\/01319<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of many interior photos show the Union Pacific in action. I made the original image on FujiChrome with a Nikon F3 with 180mm lens.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
