I am looking for electronic books or .pdf files of some classic railroad history books from the 1970s that I want to read or re-read. I own the original books - frequently several copies - so I am not looking to steal content from anyone, I just like the convenience of reading these books electronically when I am traveling. Some I am looking for: "All Aboard with E.M. Frimbo" "The Final Years (of the O&W)" by Ed Crist and John Krause Has anyone made an effort to move these books to electronic format - and get permission from the original authors/publishers to do so? Thanks Chris. |

Thanks Chris. Try Amazon dot com --- they have the Frimbo book for a very low price, like less than a gal of gas !!! Bob H |

Google books might be a source. But then, the desired books might be too new for that source. |
