Railroads!!

If you love and enjoy the GREAT railroad history.....HERE is a Fabulous book that you should have discovered long ago!! And it really depicts some great information via the photos as well as the stories and descriptions. I have a book shop with these for sale, but I will ALWAYS retain my OWN copy of this great book. I guess what really got me hooked on books: as little kids, my brother and I would get up at ANY time of the night to watch the "twains"; this was AFTER my Dad had taken the family on a great train vacation in the 1960's. PS What is so ABSURD>>>this "Country" will not utilize TRAINS!! LOOK <br />at Japan, Europe, and beyond!!
