About This Item
Privately Published, 1992. First edition. Trade paperback. Very Good. This book is written as a tribute to the men and women who comprise the cast of characters in the passing parade of railroad history. It is written mostly from memory and with gratitude and genuine affection for all those hogheads, ashcats, shacks, snakes, conductors, paperheads and nut-splitters; all of the people who make up the railroad, brass hats included. They are gone now, the strong personalities, the rugged individuals from the old days of fire and steam. Gone also are the colorful events and comic antics that once made the railroad such an interesting place to work.
