註釋

This book is about Baltimore & Ohio's Cincinnatian, one of scores of new trains inaugurated by many railroads in the decade after World War Two when passenger train travel was booming. It was all coach train consisting of only five cars, powered by a streamlined Pacific type (4-6-2) steam locomotive. This one small, but highly advertised train served somewhat as an emblem of the enthusiasm on the part of many railroads with high hopes that passenger business could be retained by the railroads in the face of highway and airline competition.
