图书描述

Unlike many United States industries, railroads are intrinsicallylinked to American soil and particular regions. Yet few Americans pay attention torail lines, even though millions of them live in an economy and culture"waiting for the train." In "Train Time: Railroadsand the Imminent Reshaping of the United States Landscape," John R.Stilgoe picks up where his acclaimed work "MetropolitanCorridor" left off, carrying his ideas about the spatialconsequences of railways up to the present moment. Arguing that the train isreturning, "an economic and cultural tsunami about to transform the UnitedStates," Stilgoe posits a future for railways as powerful shapers ofAmerican life. Divided into sections that focuson particular aspects of the impending impact of railroads on the landscape, "Train Time" moves seamlessly between historicaland contemporary analysis. From his reading of what prompted investors to reorienttheir thinking about the railroad industry in the late 1970s, to his exploration ofcreative solutions to transportation problems and land use planning and developmentin the present, Stilgoe expands our perspective of an industry normally associatedwith bad news. Urging us that "the magic moment is now," heobserves, "Now a train is often only a whistle heard far off on a sleeplessnight. But romantic or foreboding or empowering, the whistle announces return andchange to those who listen." Forscholars with an interest in American history in general and railroad and transithistory in particular, as well as general readers concerned about the future oftransportation in the United States, "Train Time"is an engaging look at the future of our railroads.
