"The Heisler Locomotive, 1891-1941" is the definitive history of the Heisler Locomotive Works of
Erie, Pennsylvania
, and the interesting and capable machines they produced.
The smallest of the three major manufacturers of geared locomotives (Heisler, Lima, and Climax), Heisler constructed over
600 geared steam locomotives
,
more than 30 fireless steam locomotives, and a single diesel-electric locomotive
during its 50 years of production.
This is a revised and updated edition of the classic 1982 book.
The book’s original detailed builder’s list and owner’s index have both been updated and revised, and over 200 original black and white photographs from the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania’s collection have been newly rescanned and retouched for enhanced printing quality.
Reproductions of original patent drawings and specification tables compliment the comprehensive text, which covers both Heisler’s corporate history and the development of geared steam locomotive technology. This extensively improved book is a must-have for both the avid historian and the casual railroad enthusiast.
Softbound, 8.5x11, 200 pages, 200 photographs, illustrations.
