Three teen-age boys, trained as telegraphers, manage to get themselves in and out of a wide variety of harrowing circumstances. Using their knowledge of Morse code, the science of telegraphs, and the operation of railroads, the boys stir in native resourcefulness, quick-thinking, and when the occasion demands it, raw courage – to effect rescues, thwart thieves, and solve mysteries. If Tom Swift had lived in the nineteenth century, he could not have had more exciting escapades!","icons":[{"src":"https://deow9bq0xqvbj.cloudfront.net/image-logo/18508671/The_Young_Railroadersbkg5y_300x300.jpg","sizes":"300x300","type":"image/png"}]}
