 Danville Branch of the Oakland, Antioch & Eastern Railway provides a unique look at the small branch railway which once ran 10.15 miles between Saranap in Walnut Creek to Diablo east of Danville in Contra Costa County, California from 1914 to 1924.

The book, divided into nineteen chapters, discusses the branch's many names, construction, officers, personnel, rolling stock, fight to save the line and closing the line.

Sixty black and white photographs, fourteen maps and fourteen illustrations contained in 212 pages were contributed by individuals, museums and archives to help tell the enjoyable story of this little railway which played its role in the once great electric interurban railway system of America. Woven throughout is much local history of the area.

A helpful guide is included for retracing the route of the San Ramon Valley's nearly forgotten "Toonerville Trolley". The book was written by Irma M. Dotson and published in 1996 by the Museum of the San Ramon Valley located in Danville, California. The book is a trade paperback with illustrated wrappers. It measures 8.5"×11".
