1931 The Grand Punk Railroad: Local

By: Ryohgo Narita, Katsumi Enami, Taylor Engel - translator

Narrated by: Michael Butler Murray

The place: America. The year: 1931. The setting: the transcontinental express train known as the "Flying Pussyfoot." Aboard the train are a gang aiming to make some extra cash, a group of revolutionary terrorists trying to recapture their leader, and a pair of thieves looking to meet up with an old friend in New York City. But drunk on the excitement of their departure, none of them are prepared for what awaits them on the rails...

another great audiobook

the performances were great and a stand out has to be the Russo familie's hit man Ladd Russo who has been narrated very well and is on par with the English dub performance of the baccano! anime adaptation.

Jaccuzi is ofc the cry baby underdog whose able to step up during the events of this arc.

Issac and Miria the lovable wacky couple from the first volume makes their appearance in this 2 parter arc..

the setting of the flying pussyfoot is ofc a train which adds some urgency when it gets hijacked by a group of terrorists,a group led by ofc Ladd Russo,and a monster known as the rail tracer..

Jaccuzi Splot and his gang of delinquents alongside the passengers are contained within this chaos..


overall I'm excited to hear what volume 3 will sound like

I love a good story on a train

Bacanno! is a fast paste story about people of different backgrounds coming across one another under the most unusual circumstances. It's interesting and full of excitement, I think it's worth checking out if you haven't experienced it before.

Amazing book

This is easily one of my favorite books I've ever read, and enjoying while multitasking as an audiobook was just as wonderful. I can't wait to get started on the next one!
