I have got that fine book. It is a compilation of the locals running in SoCal. It's primary purpose it to aid the local railroad fans to catch the trains for photography etc. But it is also a very good index into the locals with source, destination, formal name, nick name and some remarks like served main industries etc. No photos etc. Just a plain list of the locals.
A very short example (most are have more information). I hope not to violate copy right with a short quotation.
Heading:
(Fontana - 8827 Cerry Ave, Fontana CA, - viewable from Cherry overpass)
