BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted September 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 I just received this update from David Leaphart regarding his book on the Fort Wilderness Railroad...Hi Folks,I hope all of you are doing well!A quick note on the Fort Wilderness Railroad book: it's now available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble! I re-visited the book and revampedsome of the formatting, spelling, grammar, and credits. The biggest event was going to a new printer. I was using LuLu Press. The qualitywas "ok" but the price was quite high. I was able to work with CreateSpace, the printing arm of Amazon. They are now printing thebook. The quality is much better and the price is about half that of Lulu.The book has continued to sell since 2010 with many copies sold overseas. There seems to be an appetite for the book and its contents in Germany, Russia, and China. Who would have thought that!Thanks again to all of you for your help and encouragement. Without you, the book would have been much smaller and less detailed, or maybe would not have even happened.Take care,David For those that haven't seen it yet, you can check out the page of FWRR information David provided us with here...http://www.fortfiends.net/_/history/fwrr/the-6-lives-of-the-fort-wilderness-railroad-r101 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

southernview -- Ray 25 Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 Being an active and longtime fan of class 1 railroads, the Disney RR is of special interest to me. Thanks for the dedicated site for it and I will have to look into David's books on the subject. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
