E. S. Dellinger, premiere author of railroad fiction, delivers three exciting tales of rugged workers and the challenges they face moving across the country and back. This volume features three stories -- "Avalanche!" deals with a railroad worker coming to terms with his father's death; Rud Randall must out-distance an approaching "Tornado" and rescue his passengers -- or risk their lives to prevent his son's suicide! Then the railroad crew calls upon the "The Lion Tamer" to round-up escaped circus animals! So, hop a freight, mate, and ride the rails toward thrills and romance!
