Track Side

About the Book

Since I grow up between the tracks and could sleep with the freights trains running by my house every hour, I grew up liking trains. I have seen the big freight train era. Even the coal soot made up the ground that we played on. Many people like trains and this is book of train pictures.

About the Author

I dedicate this book to my wife and to my mother with out them it would not have been written. I grew up in a time that if you had a roof over your head and a warm house in the wintertime and food and clothes you were rich.My dad had a job at a near by factor. I also was taken to church and with God in your heart your heart you are rich. If I knew then that I was going to write books when I got to be sixty, I would have studied harder. We liked to travel. When I got old enough to get a car we could travel. I made money on a paper route so we could travel. When I was twelve with the money from my paper rout, I bought my first piece of land. Then built a four-room house on my second piece of land. When I got a job at a mill, I bought more land. I later bought and rented houses and apartments.
