      • Résumé :
        The year is 1880 and Jackson Junction is about as wild as any town on the western frontier. A national depression in 1873 has forced many men out of their jobs. One sheriff depends upon volunteers for his posses to keep the peace. It's in this social climate that Toby, a 15-year-old, arrives on an orphan train from New York City to be adopted by the Oliver family and to be put to work as a cub reporter for Mister Dunn, editor and publisher of the Junction Citizen Press. Mister Dunn is tired of printing only planting schedules for farmers and cooking recipes for the town's wives. He wants exciting stories in his newspaper, and gives that assignment to Toby. Of course, with 67 saloons on Main Street and a news tipster by the name of Captain Pig Reardon of the Michigan Central Railroad Police, Toby has no trouble finding excitement to write about for Mister Dunn. Train Town, as Toby likes to call Jackson Junction, because of the numerous trains, and their whistles, provides plenty of exciting stories for Toby to write. There are bank robberies by an elusive gang, a terrible collision of two passenger trains near the depot, a coal mine explosion, a cyclone, a wild cattle drive through town that has a fatal ending, a wild west show that almost gets Toby killed and a pair of court cases which involve the Michigan Central Railroad just to mention a few of Toby's big stories. And, there's Bethany Wiggins, who, at 15, has her eye on Toby as her future husband ... and, not too far in the future as far as she's concerned. There's never a dull moment with Captain Pig Reardon around to bend Toby's ear with scoops for him to write about for the Junction Citizen Press. However, Pig always has an ulterior motive, hoping to lure Toby into one of his quick-money-making schemes to help Pig finance his way east, so he can perform on the New York stage. Train Town will take the reader back into a time of oil lamps, dirt streets and the smell of horse manure, wooden sidewalks, bare-knuckle prize fights, twenty-five cent meals at restaurants and boarding houses for a good many of the town's families. And, of course, the railroads. They never stop building new lines into Jackson Junction. They come from the east, the west, the south and the north. There'll be three different passenger depots in town, plus freight yards, roundhouses and miles and miles of track. Train Town has it all, and Toby Oliver, cub reporter, is ready to tell you every exciting minute of it in the action-packed pages of this novel.
