The giant held an enormous club that was studded with spikes of ice, and was held almost casually at his side. As if this wondrous sight was not marvellous enough, another eleven giants appeared, throwing up great walls of snow that would have smothered the band, were it not for Meddryn!&amp;s swift command to fall back. All twelve of winter!&amp;s children stood ready, their fearsome forms magnifOcent, but their ancient and grey faces with their white brows, hair and beards passive and kind.

Slowly, I open the brand new box cutter. It is a great day with the sun shining outside. I can hear the birds chirping; laughing sounds come from the other room. My heart pounds harder and harder as the noises in my head keep get ting louder and louder. I know it will all be over soon. I take one last look at the sun. Slowly I raise the blade to my throat...

At first I was moved to write this book in response to my family's request that I tell the story of my life and the unlikely career of brick mason to aquatic professional. The writing quickly got out of hand when I saw a need to also give insight to the reader into historical events in which I participated that helped to develop beach lifeguard services of post World War Two coastal towns into the full blown "Aquatic Centers" they are today. These permanent departments of many city governments across America established a new profession I call "Waterwork."  A high achievement of this new calling in which I had a hand, as did many wonderful, able professionals, and famous individuals whom I hope to give adequate tribute to, was the establishment of the International Swimming Hall Of Fame at Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA. From life guarding the free-spirited beaches of the nineteen forties and fifties, professional "Waterwork" is here to stay.

The author, Ken Lothridge, first hired out in 1973 for the Missouri Pacific Railroad in Fort Worth, TX, as a brakeman/conductor working the freight trains. The Union Pacific Railroad merged with the Missouri Pacific Railroad in the 1980's and he became a Union Pacific conductor. In 1993, he moved to California and went to work for Amtrak passenger service, where he worked until 2005. Lothridge wrote and published the first of his "A Conductor Tells..." books in 2003. His "Unauthorized Train Stories" book received great praise from his readers, as well as the editor of Trains magazine, Writer's Digest, the editor of Johns Hopkins University Press, the editor of South Platte Press, and the President and CEO of Amtrak, Mr. David Gunn. His second book, "A Conductor Tells Unbelievable TRAIN STORIES," is a continuation of the crazy, funny, and informative train stories he and his fellow co-workers experienced while working the rails.

This is a book about my 23 years of railroading both on freight and passenger trains. These are short stories about my life and my fellow co-workers on our jobs as conductors and engineers. It is a collection of stories about how the railroad began, strange and crazy things that happen, bad wrecks, dangers of the job, animals, how the weather affects trains, drugs and alcohol, and the beauty and tragedy of working the rails. Some of the stories will make you laugh, some will make you cry, they will leave you astounded and in some cases, leave you in awe. Even if you've never been on a train or never cared anything about trains, there are stories in this book you will not want to miss.
