Rolly Martin - CPR Engineer

From time to time I make a recommendation on a web site I feel is outstanding for it's interest, content, and presentation. Another such site is "Rolly Martin Country."

The writer, David Gagnon, relates the progress of a pilgrim - a young man from his early days riding "no pay" training trips through the awesome privilege of becoming a full fledged Canadian Pacific Railroad locomotive engineer.

A rare look at a slice of life that I fear has become a rare commodity, when a man was judged by his performance of duty, knowledge of his machine, and most important, the strength of his character. Character as my Dad defined it for me when I was a young man: "The moral strength to do the right thing even if no one is watching you."

This is not a quick in and out site. David is a good writer, and you'll fine yourself book marking this site for extended reading.
