The Dog Train Conductor: Eugene Bostick's Heartwarming Mission
The Beginning of a Heartwarming Journey
At 88 years old, Eugene Bostick, a retiree living in Fort Worth, Texas, found a unique way to spend his golden years. Initially, a horse barn on his property became a haven for unwanted pets, leading Eugene and his brother, Walter, to care for the animals.
The Birth of the Dog Train
Witnessing a neighbor using a tractor with carts attached, Eugene envisioned a similar setup to transport the dogs. He crafted a dog train from plastic barrels with wheels, enabling him to take the dogs on charming field trips through quiet streets and woods.
A Continuation of Compassion
After Walter passed away in 2020 at the age of 91, Eugene carried forward their mission, determined to bring joy to the dogs he cared for. Despite his age, Eugene remains dedicated to operating the dog train, seeing the happiness it brings to the animals as his motivation.
A Tale of Love and Dedication
Eugene's selfless act of creating a dog train showcases his unwavering love and dedication to his four-legged friends. While uncertain about the train's future, he cherishes the moments spent with the dogs and vows to continue for as long as possible.
