Sorry for resurrecting an outdated thread, but I just found this book via a search on Barnes & Noble, and just got it last week!

In my first look through the book (yes, I look at the pictures first!), this is amazing! Even highlighting both Baldwin shops (and my parents house was about a 20 minute drive from the site of the Spring Garden shop, and only 10 minutes drive from Eddystone!)

This is what I've been looking for for a long time - a book on the history of those wonderful WDWRR locos, right down to photos of them prior to going to Orlando!

On a side note, there is a long out of print VHS video on steam in Mexico, which has some of those locos in service in the Yucatan in the 1960's!
