Discover the magic of sitting in a dome car, sleeping in a Pullman, dining on rails, and riding such grand trains as the Canadian, among the world's finest.Karl Zimmermann is the author and co-author of 20 books, including CZ: The Story of the California Zephyr; Santa Fe Streamliners: The Chiefs and Their Tribesmen; and Magnetic North: Canadian Steam in Twilight. An accomplished writer and photographer whose love of trains has sparked a lifetime of travel worldwide, Zimmermann has been a frequent contributor to the travel sections of newspapers across the country, including The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, and The Washington Post, while his stories and photographs have been published in various magazines.
