About

The first railway coach rolled along the tracks of the Stockton and Darlington Railroad in England in 1825. Ever since, trains have attracted widespread attention not only as a kind of transportation but also because of qualities that endear them to an admiring public. The small boy seeing a real train for the first time shares his thrill with the sedate banker whose hobby is making model rolling stock. This special and often sentimental interest in trains is understandable; trains are big and powerful, and they're all going somewhere. They're moving all sorts of people and products to all kinds of places. With cargo unseen and destination unknown, they provide lay observers with a choice of the practical or of the romantic and mysterious upon which to speculate.
