Forty Years On The Rail is a memoir written by Charles B. George, chronicling his experiences working on the railroad for forty years. The book covers George's career from his early days as a brakeman to his eventual retirement as a conductor. Throughout the book, George provides vivid descriptions of the people, places, and events he encountered during his time on the rail. He also reflects on the changes that took place in the industry over the course of his career, including the transition from steam to diesel locomotives and the impact of technological advancements.
