For the century after 1865 all the largest railroad companies had flagship luxury trains, spectacularly appointed steamliners offering unrivaled standards of service and thoughtful amenities including ladies' perfume and carnations for gentlemen. These luxury trains transported well-heeled passengers in grand style across spectacular American landscapes in an atmosphere of privilege and elegance. Including the iconic Super Chief of the Sante Fe Railway and New York Central System's fabled 20th Century Limited, they became legends in their day and for decades after their last runs. This beautifully illustrated book allows readers to experience the exhilarating journeys, the exquisitely designed train cars and the vintage advertisements and posters that together made up the passenger's experience during this golden age of train travel – an age still remembered and celebrated today.

If you think aging is a passive endeavor, you are wrong. We don't stop using our bodies to propel us through our daily lives because we've reached a certain age. We become sedentary at our own peril. Instead of becoming weak, learn how to stay strong. Instead of risking a fall, learn how to be stable. It only takes three hours per week to build muscle, improve balance and stability, and slow bone loss. And resistance training offers even more benefits, such as a lowered risk of a heart attack or stroke. Train to Age is about more than cardio and resistance training. It's about all the things you want to do with the last third of your life. You can passively walk through the process of aging, allowing its degradations to take away your strength and eventually your independence-or you can Train to Age and live your best life well into your eighties!

Ashley meets her great-uncle by the old train tracks near their community in Nova Scotia. Ashley sees his sadness, and Uncle tells her of the day years ago when he and the other children from their community were told to board the train before being taken to residential school where their lives were changed forever. They weren't allowed to speak Mi'gmaq and were punished if they did. There was no one to give them love and hugs and comfort. Uncle also tells Ashley how happy she and her sister make him. They are what give him hope. Ashley promises to wait with her uncle by the train tracks, in remembrance of what was lost.
