The true story of a little dog who had adventure in his heart and the rattle of the rails in his soul. Now in paperback!

In the early days of the railway, when shiny new tracks were opening vast areas of Australia, there was an adventurous dog who was part of it all.

As the tracks were being laid he was there on the train - riding in his favourite spot on top of the Yankee engine. Everyone knew him. He was Bob the Railway Dog.

A delightful tale set in a historic era brought to life by gentle and thoughtful illustrations and wonderful, emotive writing. A most enjoyable reading experience for children, and for the adults who read to them.
