Description

All aboard! From the fastest to the longest, the oldest to the newest, through tunnels, across bridges and up mountainsides, with this Lonely Planet Kids | How Trains Work Book you can take a fascinating ride through the world of trains.

Young readers travel through history and around the world to find out everything they ever wanted to know about trains. Unfold pages and lift flaps to reveal bustling stations, old steam locomotives fueled with coal, and high-speed trains zooming across Japan at almost 400 miles per hour. And that's not all. See how trains reach the top of mountains, transport people under cities, and work beneath the sea.
