Jack loves visiting Grandpa in his old train carriage. He loves helping him in the train museum. And he loves hearing his stories about trains and railways. From runaway engines to people-powered carriages, train-robbing bushrangers and lifesaving pointsmen, Grandpa always has a tale to pass the time. Best of all, every one of them is true. Join Jack and his Grandpa as they journey through Australian railway history - and try to save the town's precious train museum. Fact sections at the end of each chapter include historic photos from the National Library's Buckland Collection, train facts and figures, and quizzes.
