Pere Marquette 1225

By: T.J. Gaffney,Dean Pyers,Steam Railroading Institute

Images of Rail: Pere Marquette 1225 presents the history of steam locomotive 1225, one of 39 Berkshire Class 2-8-4's built between 1937 and 1944 for the Pere Marquette Railway. Although it is best known for being the sound and image behind the movie adaptation of Chris Van Allsburg's The Polar Express, 1225 has a rich history that preceded a life as a movie star. From her construction at Lima Locomotive Works and important role in hauling material from factories to the front in World War II to her unlikely preservation on Michigan State University's campus and eventual restoration, the history of 1225 covers nearly 75 years. The locomotive is now housed at the Steam Railroading Institute in Owosso, Michigan, and the story behind it will take readers back to a time when whistles in the night charged the imagination and the United States truly was the "Arsenal of Democracy.

Tom has led a very interesting life, filled with various adventures, all the while enjoying a full family life. Activities such as these filled his life with humor and excitement: surfing, coaching soccer and Little League, playing semipro football, diving with Navy SEALs, off-road car racing Baja 500 and 1000, Tecate 250 on a motorcycle, fire department captain, Senior Olympic volleyball, automobile road racing, sailboat racing and cruising, and many more exciting and humorous moments. That period of our history offered his generation the opportunity to achieve a full life experience without some of the restraints that the new generations must endure.

Under Running Laughter

By: Dean Jones

Dean Jones was two men. He was the boyishly handsome star of the Walt Disney box-office hits - the hero of television shows and Saturday matinees, with a winsome smile every mother could trust. And he was the reckless, hard-living predator who prowled from one Hollywood romance to another - always stalked by deep regrets and a strange death wish that arose when on his motorcycle or behind the wheel of his sports car. Enter Lory Patrick. Loving, attractive, independent, different.
