One of the fastest ways for many people to travel together over land is by train. Although train travel in America is not as popular as it was a century ago, it continues to convey a sense of mystery and romanticism in our minds. This fully illustrated, informative resource for young readers introduces the history of the railroad, explains how trains are powered, examines modern high-speed trains used in other parts of the world, and looks to the future of train travel.
