In Seymour Simon's Book of Trains, the author dedicates one spread each to various kinds of trains, with a full-color photograph on one side and, opposite, a couple of paragraphs describing it. Trains and individual freight cars are displayed in glorious full color in this oversized book. He covers everything from old-fashioned diesel trains to subways that run on electricity to France's TGV (with speeds of between 200-300 mph). A series of spreads on the freight train details different kinds of cars. Softcover, 11 x 9", 40 pages, ages 4 - 8, all color.
