Praise for Trains & Grains

"Just recieved my copies. Amazing books!" G.D.

Books arrived yesterday, wow are they ever nice. - DD

" I received my copies of Volumes 1 & 2 a number of weeks ago and just wanted to pass along my congratulations on putting together two fine publications and as well as express my thanks. Both these volumes have already proved invaluable for modelling purposes as well as an enjoyable reminiscence. Once again many thanks for recording this era and these locations!" - BK

"Your grain book was a surprise with all the great shots and info. Thanks for taking the time to film and share the info." - JP

"Arrived this week - like a lot!" - RT

"As a Portage modeller I cannot begin to express my thanks for you publishing the 2 volume set of Trains & Grains. In almost every photo of “Portage proper” there is some small gem of information lurking in the background. In veritably a gold mine for a “Portage” modeller such as myself. A real treasure book in every sense of the word !

A true “Trackside Treasure” for sure ! As I am a family oriented person, I was touched that your uncle, was able to see your “scribbler scratching’s” come to life, after a this time !

Kudo’s on a job well done !

BTW: I loved the layout of the books, your “graphics guy” should be congratulated for doing a bang up job !" - RSOB "The books look great, can't wait to spend more time with them." - ES

Thanks"Keep printing and I will keep buying." - JP

"Earlier this week, I enjoyed an hour or so trackside with your books.

Their format makes one want to continue on to the next page to see

what is coming next. I found this especially to be the case with Volume 2." - DG

"My copies of the latest Kingston printed works came in today's mail. Can't say enough about this work. Like his other works on VIA, a time capsule in print. I just need the creosote, diesel exhaust, ballast dust and the horn sound effects and the "way-back" machine is set to 1982-86 years. Well worth contacting Eric for this work. You don't have to be from the prairies, its a great reference work.Very impressed by the detail and work involved." - BS

"Just could not wait to say thanks! Looks like an all-day read ! Thank you, ever so much!" - RO

M y copies arrived today and I am pleased that I was able to contribute to such a first-rate publication. You have created a precious photographic record of much that is now gone. Congratulations on a job well done." - CB
