  Announcing a publication of the Little Rock Chapter of the National
Railway Historical Society, the Arkansas Railroad Club..."Railroad
Stations and Trains through Arkansas and the Southwest".
 
  This exciting new title focuses on the railroads of Arkansas, and
includes detailed coverage of the many stations and trains throughout
Arkansas and the southwest...including Arkansas, Missouri, Tennessee,
Oklahoma, Louisiana, and Texas. Revisit the days of old on the Rock
Island, Missouri Pacific, Texas and Pacific, Cotton Belt, Frisco,
Missouri and North Arkansas, and the Kansas City Southern. An
informative text is combined with hundreds of photographs. The cover
features Little Rock's Union Station, with the logos of several Arkansas
railroads.
 
  Join author Clifton Hill on a memorable journey back to the days when
the local railroad passenger depot was the hub of activity in every
trackside community. He and fellow Arkansas Railroad Club Member Tom
Shook, and a host of contributors bring back the days of glory -- a time
when the station agent was one of the most important and respected
citizens.

spectacular color and black and white photos. Railroad passes, timetable
