by Thad Hillis Carter (Author) This book tells the story of the growth of the railroad industry in southwest Louisiana through photographs and documentation of the first street railroads in Lake Charles and the arrival of logging trains and passenger service. Railroads of Lake Charles revisits the saga of the Kansas City Southern, Missouri Pacific, Southern Pacific, and other early lines. It also details the branch lines that originated in Lake Charles--the Lake Charles & Northern, which operated a mixed train daily to DeRidder, and the Southern Pacific line, which operated from Lake Charles to Lake Arthur to service the rice-farming communities along its route. The Lake Charles-to-DeQuincy line of the Kansas City Southern is also included. Number of Pages: 98 Dimensions: 0.25 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN Publication Date: February 08, 2021

The price printed on the back was less than the suggested retail on the listing and it makes the margin so low that its not worth taking up self space. SplitShops, you need to work on better rates from your suppliers or up the suggested retail cost and make sure it is not preprinted at a lower amount. There is no way this is sustainable. I love your selection, but as a practical matter I cannot stock products that I don't make any margin on.

Hi Cara, thank you for the honest feedback. You're right. The suggested retail on that listing was higher than the price the publisher prints on the cover, which should never happen. You shouldn't have to absorb that. We've removed the listing and are checking our other titles to make sure suggested retail matches the printed cover price. I'm also sending you a direct message to arrange a refund or credit for this title. We're glad you like the selection and would love the chance to earn a spot on your shelves again.
