This railroad book is a list of stories from the men and women who did the work and lived the stories. Each story told is a part of history in the way we ran the railroad during the years when it was exciting and dangerous. The railroad life will beat you down, but you return the next day and do it all over again. Each day held unexpected adventures and never were they the same. These employees spent a lifetime fighting the elements to keep the trains moving. The lifestyle was a job, but it was a job that got in your blood.
