The Last Train by Gordon Titcomb, illustrated by Wendell Minor
Titcomb and Minor provide a nostalgic and impressive salute to the by-gone era of railroading through evocative words and lush, richly colored spreads. Together, the author and artist capture the nuances of life on the railroad from a fireman shoveling coal to a train racing across the countryside beneath a full moon. For train lovers old and young to share alone or together.
