What child lucky enough to have lived in the era was not struck by
the awesome size, power and mystery of a steam locomotive going to
distant locations? Although the locations for the Midland were not
so distant, given the time and the exuberance of the country, the
Iowa Midland was a significant force in the "growing up" of a small
section of eastern Iowa. To the uninitiated who wonder how trains
happened to go through so many towns to the railroad aficionados
who realize that the towns actually grew around the railroads, the
story of railroads and their impact on America at this dynamic time
in our countries history is absorbing. The Iowa Midland possessed
all the elements of the railroad boom but on a scale that is easy
for the reader to relate to and follow. The book relates the story
told time and time again all across the country about how the
railroad had such an incredible impact on the development of our
country and brought it into the 20th century.
