A new book surveys the design of railway graphics – from logos to advertising – in 20th-century US Designer Ian Logan and journalist Jonathan Glancey have released a new book, Logomotive: Railroad Graphics and the American Dream, as a visual tribute to the graphic design of railroads in mid-20th-century US. Logan, who had previously designed fabrics for Mary Quant and Jeff Banks in London, arrived in the US in 1968 and became fascinated by the logos and slogans he saw painted on the sides of trains and freight cars. He began to photograph them, as well as buy old train timetables and other ephemera in antique shops, amassing an extensive collection.
