Brownwood native Terry Beck, BHS 1967, returns home April 4-6 to promote his new book, A Gathering of Words – A Train of Thought. His tales of life working on the railroad are gaining popularity around the country, and the book is now in its second printing.
Terry will be signing books at multiple locations over the three days, so his friends and former colleagues can catch up with him at their convenience. He is particularly pleased to be spending the weekend at Martin & Frances Lehnis Railroad Museum celebrating the First Annual Heart Of Texas Railroad Festival.
A Gathering of Words – A Train of Thought captures memories of an earlier time on the glorious Santa Fe Railroad. Besides his own exploits and lessons, the book is filled with recollections of some of the rich and colorful characters he encountered, including tributes to beloved mentors and colleagues. Additionally, Terry Beck recounts memorable stories that have been handed down by the people he worked with, some of which might even be true.
