Author Henry E. Bender Jr. presents one of the first copies of his book on railroad depots to Don C. Douglas, to whom the book is dedicated. Douglas worked for the Southern Pacific for many years, including on the Caltrain corridor. He worked jobs ranging from train-order operator and tower man to clerical positions to keep trains running safely and customers happy.  Douglas has also written extensively about railroading.
