bear Posted April 29, 2002 Share Posted April 29, 2002 just thought we could use a thread where people could just list good fictional books that deal with trains and/or hopping etc. nonfiction is appreciated too. i know that this one is nothing new to most of ya'll, but try: "you can't win," by jack black. it's great. post more so i can read on. . . .thanks bear actually this book is an autobiography. .but it's kind of embelished and ya'll get the point.
