RAILWAY EXPRESS AGENCY/Roseman
For more than half a century, Railway Express Agency moved America’s commerce from coast to coast and to nearly every town across the country. This comprehensive new volume traces the full history of REA, from its origins and corporate structure to the realities of daily express operations. Detailed chapters examine rolling stock, terminals and facilities, air express service, logos and emblems, and the vast green truck fleet that carried the familiar red-and-white shield into nearly every city and town in America until 1975.
More than 300 photographs, diagrams, and technical drawings, including original illustrations by author Vic Roseman, provide unmatched visual and technical depth. Extensive appendices and a chapter on modeling REA equipment make this the definitive history of Railway Express Agency.
