A short haul to the bay: A history of the Narragansett Pier Railroad, (Shortline RR series) - Softcover
It's about a rail line of such brevity that a fair young day-coach passenger once argued for the duration of an entire run over whether her poodle dog should ride in the baggage car! Taking us behind scenes of vacation specials and company picinics (instant steamed clams by pipeline from the boiler of the afternoon train!) to describe Hazard-ous controversies with shippers, the New Haven, and government...as well as other switchbacks and turnouts of running a railroad family style, which nevertheless have given this short, short, short-line a long, long life as compared to others.
