Many of the books I used as references are listed in the bibliography, and most of these are still in print or available on the used book market for those who wish to learn more. Below are links to locations online where these are available for purchase.
I have listed the sources in order of my purchasing recommendations. Railroad historical groups are listed first, as proceeds from sales support their various preservation efforts. Publishers are listed next for those books still in print. Next comes Powell's Books, an independent, new and used bookseller located in Portland OR, and finally, of course, Amazon.com. And, if you can't find what you're looking for, there's always e-(buyer beware)-Bay.
Disclaimer: I cannot assume any responsibility for any title's availability or condition at any of the listed sources. Shop at your own risk.
