There is no shortage of railroad histories on the marketplace today. But too often, these publications cover frequently covered topics. There is nothing wrong with this, but there are so many great histories waiting to be told. As the editor of Railfanning.org, Todd DeFeo has brought to life railroad histories that have all been forgotten. But these stories are worth remembering, and DeFeo has embarked on publishing books about obscure railroads that helped shaped countless communities even if their legacies are often overlooked. These books are available through the Railfanning.org Store and other retailers. Please be sure to watch this page for exciting announcements about future publications.

“This is a remarkable book about an obscure, struggling railroad that had the misfortune of opening its full line in 1861. The research behind this book is impressive. The writing is quite enjoyable. I recommend this book for anyone interested in railroad or Tennessee history.”
