Certain technicalities aside, I'd like to adhere to Dewey classification but help
simplifying book searches for my young students.
EX: I've recently changed the monster truck books that came classed in sports
(790s) to 629.2 so they'd be with the monster truck VEHICLE books.
Now, I'd like to do the same with trains. Can anyone explain why trains are in the
385s and why I should leave them there? I understand that transportation related to
trains. Where do you have yours....? I have some classed 625.1 and it seems to
me more students will find them there. Similar with ships....
