On Thursday, August 4 I was excited to be a judge for a new fundraising event for The Overflow Foundation. The Overflow Foundation is a non-profit that strives to teach students to flow past their limits by bringing the arts to areas that lack these subjects in their schools. With classes in acting, music, visual arts and reading, The Overflow Foundation has been working in the East Lake area of Birmingham for two years and hopes to expand to include Tarrant this coming school year. Their dream is to encourage students to step outside of their box and try new things that will make them better students and better people.

The spirit of the trainspotter exists in the hearts of all those enamored with the sight and sound of the locomotive, that massive steel machine rolling along at an implacable pace on tracks that spread like metal arteries across America's physical and cultural landscape. Author Michael R.S. Ledingham is amongst these enthusiasts, and from his experiences in volunteering for train museum restoration projects and studying railroad history's pivotal role in the nation's development, he gives us all a glimpse into this subject with the fictionalized life of a railroad hobbyist in The RAILFANatic.
