Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Hurray for the Dorchester! is a Children's Picture Book by Anne Fotheringham and Michael Martchenko.Long ago, in the early days of the country of Canada, there was a lot of country and not a lot of ways to travel over long distance. There were horses and peoples' own two feet, but some people just couldn't be bothered to deal with the hassle.What Canada needed was a railway. So, they set out to build the Champlain and St. Lawrence Railroad, which connected Montreal to Lake Champlain, speeding travel south to New York City.They also needed a locomotive to pull trains. That's where The Dorchester came in. And so, this book chronicles the struggles of the first Canadian railway.The book was published in 1986. | |
