In this hardbound edition of the third book in the series, the
President, desperate to leave some sort of legacy, has promised the
nation that a great freight-hauling bullet train system will cross
the country starting in just one year. The biggest problem? Nobody
has started to design or build anything on a project that should
take 10 years. When his advisors hatch a plan to split the work
into dozens of manageable pieces, only a small handful of companies
sign on. Tom Swift believes that he can figure a way to dig the
massive tunnels under the various mountain ranges on the western
half of the country, and may even be able to build the locomotive
engines, but the other companies begin to abandon their work,
making it necessary for Enterprises to take on more and more. A
rival company owner has it in for Tom, and a mysterious source of
governmental sabotage is somewhere in Washington DC. With time and
so many other things against him, is it going to be a mission
impossible for the young inventor?
