And the Train Goes…  by William Bee.

This picture book is filled with the noises of a train station, from the ticking of the station clock to the call of the station master to the whistle of the train.  The entire text works together with a subtle rhythm of life and action combined with a style both vintage and quirky.  Turning the pages takes readers down the length of the train, seeing soldiers on parade, school children, businessmen, and chefs.  Each group of people matches the style of the train car they are on, creating a vibrant tableau of color and faces. 

Add this to the large collection of books on trains, but realize that this is a real winner of a read aloud.  It would be my first choice for train read aloud due to its large and bright art and the evocative text.
