It has taken a while, but the revised Snowplow Extra is now available on Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble, and now Kobo too! And, what's more, the revised version is available on Lulu.com and the Spearfish Lake Tales Store. Although the story hasn't changed a great deal, there have been extensive revisions.

These files contain both the glossary and map to help make the book a little easier to follow.

In the middle of the worst snowstorm of the decade, the whole town was burning down. The only hope lay on two rusty steel rails . . .

Nonstop action and adventure � no sex or violence as railroad workers and firemen struggle against fire, storm, and failing equipment to relieve an isolated northwoods town.

If you're a train buff, you'll love this one! It's a rare piece of railroad fiction for this day and age, a story of railroad workers and volunteer firemen raising to the challenge of a huge, stubborn fire in tough conditions. Bud Ellsberg is the owner of the struggling Camden and Spearfish Lake, a short-line railroad in the north woods. When a huge fire breaks out in a neighboring town, the railroad proves to be the only lifeline for the town.

One more book to go -- Runner's Moon -- and the revisions of the oldest books will be completed. These were first posted without outside editing. I hope to have it reposted soon.

Oh good news ... Gives me reason to re-read. One of the most exciting stories I've read, not just of Spearfish Lake, but anywhere!

Thanks for the work Wes!

CHEERS!
