May 2, 1956 CP Rail Crash in Galt

I had no idea when I published the booklet Tragedy in Galt just how famous a rail crash this was. I have two 8mil films taken after the crash. This is one of the films. You can get a digital copy of the Tragedy in Galt book at http://paulangan.ca

My Grandfather William Palmer was the engineer on the Toronto train.

Yes we too lived on 144 norfolk ave when this happened. I remembered it well as it was very exciting to me at the age of six.

I've been trying to find a copy of Tragey in Galt for years. The link on this page doesn't work and neither does the book store link on your web page. Is there any other way I can purchase the pdf copy of this book?
