I recently purchased a a copy of "The Sunset Limited: SP's Premier Train with a Southern Accent", a hardcover book published by the Southern Pacific Historical & Technical Society. Price was $60.00 plus $6.00 shipping via UPS.

I enjoyed the book and thought it was good value for the price. Plenty of good photos, illustrations, and textual information. It made me wish I had been old enough to enjoy a Pullman trip on The Sunset Limited during the train's peak years of 1950- 1958.
