Jim Guerin photographs FEC, SAL, Southern and C&O diesels in the Southern USA in 1956

Hello again, and here is the fifth video previewing the proposed Steam Encounters in the USA vol. 1.

Now, before briefing everybody on the contents of this video, please consider pre-ordering a copy of this volume. As it stands now, we're going to fall short of the target objective needed to make this book a go. We only have to pre-sell about 350 copies (in some combination of book only or book plus movie access) over the course of this week, which should not be a tall order.

So, if you have not already pre-ordered, please do so now to help us along. And also consider adding the access to the movies to your purchase. Or perhaps pre-order an extra copy of the book (or the book and movies) for a friend. For long-time readers and supporters, the "benefactor" option is presented for your consideration.

This fifth video is more like Diesel Encounters in the USA! It is exclusively internal combustion power, on four different roads, in the late spring and early summer of 1956:

Our fifth video (above) features Jim Guerin photographing diesels on the Florida East Coast, Seaboard Air Line, Southern, and Chesapeake & Ohio in late spring/early summer 1956.
