HOW TO USE THIS INDEX: Feature material has been indexed three or more times—once by the title under which it was published, again under the author’s last name, and finally under one or more of the subject categories or railroads. Photographs standing alone are indexed (usually by railroad), but photographs­ within a feature article are not separately indexed. Brief news items are indexed under the appropriate railroad and/or category; news stories are indexed under the appro- priate railroad and/or category and under the author’s last name. Most references to people are indexed under the company with which they are easily identified; if there is no easy identification, they may be indexed under the person’s last name (for deaths, see “Obit­uaries”).­ Maps, museums, radio frequencies, railroad historical societies, rosters of locomotives and equipment, product reviews, and stations are indexed under these categories. Items from countries other than the U.S. and Canada are indexed under the appropriate country.
