A Train Named McSwain
“A Train Named McSwain” is a joyful and engaging story that creates a happy book experience for young readers. At a time in our society when adults are feeling anxious, stressed and concerned for the future our children need to be experiencing cheerful and positive experiences. This book strengthens the feeling of optimism and enthusiasm for life with it’s friendly, smiling characters and lively colors.
I originally wrote this book just for my son when he was 4 years old to remind him of the many things he loved and experienced in early childhood once I was gone. Now that he is an adult I decided to have it published and shared with the world.
So, let your child ride with McSwain the Train as he travels with his Engineer, Dell Dear, making new friends while discovering new cultures.

“Like many young boys, I was fascinated with trains. They played a starring role in some of my earliest and coziest memories. Riding the Amtrak, visiting museums, and watching hand-painted miniature trains meander through papier-mache tunnels and quaint, model towns whetted my appetite for adventure. This book serves as a printed memorial of the fantastical places to where my imagination - and trains - would whisk me off.”
