Dear jvmalone, <br />Might I suggest James W. Kerr's Locomotive Rosters and News. This book has complete rosters for American and Canadian railroads, ands also has notes about renumberings, build dates, etcetera. I got my first one last year, and it is hard to imagine how I railfanned without it! I highly reccomend it. <br /> <br />If you cannot find this book (it is not sold at all train stores), might I suggest the more widely available Altamont Press Timetables, which have rosters with renumbering notes and the like, although the rosters only include railroads covered in the issue of the timetable. Really, I would suggest you get both. I hope I have helped <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br />Daniel
