Autorenporträt

Growing up in Worcester, Massachusetts, in the 1950s, author Brad Blodget could often be found on his bicycle, trackside along the Boston and Maine Railroad, watching trains. After graduating from the Worcester public schools, he received his BA in biology from Clark University and later earned an MS in wildlife biology from the University of Massachusetts/Amherst. He moved on to a career with the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries & Wildlife, most of it as State Ornithologist, before retiring in 2002. Soon after that, released from his professional career, a long-suppressed passion for railroad history exploded. He acquired the train symbol nickname "WX-1" for his frequent research trips between Worcester, Keene, New Hampshire, and Bellows Falls, Vermont. Brad, is an active member of the Boston & Maine Railroad Historical Society and the Railroad Locomotive and Historical Society. He resides in Holden, Massachusetts. His first book, Marium Foster's Boston & Maine Railroad, appeared in 2011.
