Book Description
Irvin R. Athearn was a pioneer in model trains beginning in the late 1940s. He started in his garage putting together O Gauge metal car kits then expanded them to include HO Scale kits. Around the mid-1950s, as a result of the purchase of Globe models, he began producing the iconic F-7 A and B Units in molded plastic. Soon after that came a whole line of plastic freight cars and locomotives. Our first book, The Standard Guide to Athearn Model Trains, documented the production of those models from the beginning of the plastic models through 1997. The Athearn Collector's Companion covers the original Guide, including models discovered since publication that book, plus all the kits produced until the end of production in October 2009. The original Guide contained approximately 4,000 entries; this book contains about 9,500. We believe you will enjoy the results of our labors as much as we have enjoyed documenting all these model kits...

Book Description
The overall goals of the grain train project are to preserve rail service in a multimodal system, provide additional rail cars to alleviate existing shortages, and to redistribute energy rebate funds in accordance with acknowledged constraints. The general purpose is to analyze and evaluate the operation of the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT)-purchased covered hopper rail cars for service to shippers in eastern Washington during calendar year 1995. Specific objectives are to evaluate: the average loads of grain transported per car; where the program assists in fulfilling WSDOT's mission as a provider of multimodal freight transportation options; car income and expenses; grain car inventory control; capital and operating costs of the grain car program; cost savings from road impacts; and the impact of the project on preserving rail service and consequent benefits to shippers and taxpayers. A final specific objective is to determine the amount of energy saved through the use of the cars. This report details the project and its results.
