ABC's on the Rails

This book serves to provide your child an opportunity to learn about the alphabet as well as trains in an educational manner. Before there were trains and trolleys, the journey for even short distances was not easy. The train linked the country together changing the cross country trip from months to days. Trolleys made it possible for people living in outlying areas to get to the city. ABC's On The Rails, with the majority of real photographs taken by the author, makes for an enjoyable learning experience.

Kenneth Springirth, with a lifelong interest in trains and trolleys, is the author of 25 books on rail lines. His father was a trolley car motorman in Philadelphia, and his grandfather was a trolley car motorman in Washington, D.C.
