Book Synopsis
The history of a Mississippi town's rail systems

Trade Review

This volume [is] an excellent presentation, in addition to being a railroad history story that ends on a positive, upbeat note.

* Michigan Railfan *

Lively, well-written and informative, Railroads of Meridian is cleanly laid out, and well-printed. It will be of great interest to fans of railroads in the deep South and their motive power and operations as it shines a bright light on many lesser-known railroads of an earlier era while documenting the region's overall history.
