Facsimile of Cagney's 1901 catalogue of miniature and standard locomotives. The brochure was originally published for the 1901 Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, NY. The Cagneys built, operated and sold their railroad systems until 1948, eventually selling about 1300 locomotives around the world, including one sent in 1902 to the Blakesley Hall Railway in Northamptonshire, very near to the doorstep of W. J. Bassett-Lowke in Northampton. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos showing the manufacturing plant and the railroads in action. The catalogue provides detailed information on the different locomotives and railroads available. There are also photos and information on Cagney locomotives that survived into the modern era. 55 pages.
