| | Official Guide of the Railways August 1936 CD w/ Index | | Unlike other CD Official Guides, this includes a clickable index! | | | | | This is the Official Guide for August 1936 on CD-ROM. Put together by a computer programmer, the easy and intuitive interface works through your internet browser. "Official Guide of the Railways August 1936" contains all 1500+ pages, including covers, scanned and enhanced from the original book and presented on CD. The interface allows you to view each page in a variety of ways, full screen, as a double page spread (as if the original book was open in front of you) or close up. You do not have to "install" it on your computer, it runs from the CD.
Railroads are indexed in alpha order; each railroad is a link that takes you to the road's information. Also linked from the interface is the additional information that is so useful in each Official Guide including the Station Index, Steamboat and Steamship Lines Index, Index to Military Posts and Camps and more. |  | | | Official Guide of the Railways August 1936 on one CD Regular price: $35.00.
