Praise For…
A parade of locomotives, from the sprightly Patentee of 1833 to the next generation of maglev speedsters...Like other entries in the Inside Story series, heavy paper stock and rounded corners afford at least a certain amount of durability. A small but choice set of technological marvels for budding trainiacs.
—Kirkus Reviews
A treat for detail-oriented train fans of any age, who will enjoy poring over the illustrations, reading the captions, and lifting the flaps to reveal the hidden equipment and scenes.
