N2  - "Edaville Railroad: The Cranberry Belt" by Linwood W. Moody is a historical account written in the mid-20th century. This book explores the unique Edaville Railroad, a small narrow-gauge railroad that operates within an extensive cranberry plantation, encapsulating the charm of bygone railway culture and its connection to cranberry farming. Moody’s narrative not only questions the fate of small railroads but celebrates the survival of the Edaville, which he depicts as the last of its kind, blending nostalgia with a practical guide for visitors.  The book serves as a guide to the Edaville Railroad and the cranberry bogs it traverses, offering readers a detailed look into the workings of the railroad system, its historical significance, and the life surrounding the cranberry industry. Moody describes the railroad's operations, including the various engines and cars that make up the fleet and the engineering marvel of navigating the plantation’s terrain. He vividly portrays the experience of riding the Edaville, complete with practical insights about the railroad's historical context, providing a comprehensive picture of this charming little railway that remains a living tribute to the era of narrow-gauged railroads.
