Trains of the 1940s

Trains of the 1940s explores the decade of railroading's finest hour and its finest trains.

The industry helped the nation win World War II, then, exhausted by the effort, spent lavishly to renew itself. This led to the creation of fleets of fine streamliners and the transition from steam to diesel locomotives.
