Guide to Electro-Motive E and F Units (KAL01316)

Guide to Electro-Motive E and F Units is a detailed history of the streamlined E and F class locomotives, tracing their development during the steam-to-diesel transition from 1935 to 1960 and how they shifted from passenger power to heavy freight. Written by Jeff Wilson, this 192-page guide presents the evolution of these iconic diesels and includes more than 200 photographs—many in color—along with line drawings of most E and F unit models to illustrate their design and operation.

Designed as a practical reference for railfans and model railroaders, the book blends historical narrative with generous visuals to explain the dieselization era and how E and F units served both passenger and freight roles. It serves as a valuable resource for modeling, offering context and reference that help recreate authentic E and F units on layouts, courtesy of the included photographs and drawings.
