Welcome to my first "ALL ABOARD" children's 3-book series involving trains and true events in the early 1900's. Luke and Summer live a couple blocks from the train depot in the small mining town of Wallace Idaho. Because their daddy is a train conductor for the Northern Pacific Railroad, Luke and Summer recognize every train that rolls through their little mountain community. Some trains carry silver and gold from the local mines and others carry people to and from Wallace. In Book 3, The Long Cold Snowstorm, Summer and Luke experience a surprise adventure when they go on their two week annual spring visit to Grandpa and Grandma in Scenic, Washington. Their adventure begins on a snowy day at the Great Northern Railway Depot in Spokane, Washington. Daddy has just taken the twins to the depot to meet Grandpa, who is a train conductor for the Great Northern Railway. Grandpa soon has the children settled into their warm cozy beds on his train to Scenic. Instead of waking up the next morning to see Grandma in Scenic, they wake up to the passenger train stuck between snow avalanches on a mountain pass. And, it is still snowing! Summer and Luke's adventure is based on the February 1910 Wellington Avalanche. Because the Bible and Jesus was the heart of many families in early American history, the Christian value of "faith" has been incorporated into the story. And please don't forget to check out the educational "Fun Facts" at the end of the book. Happy "rail" reading!
