Livingston, Montana – Just north of Paradise: Montana’s windy, New Age railroad town is full of quirks and delights … and high tech jobs at PrintingForLess
On any given day in Livingston you might see Christopher Paolini stopping by the Second Street post office.
Paolini is in the Guinness Book of World Records as the youngest author of a best-selling book series. He’s 35 now, but was just 15 when he started on the first volume of the "Inheritance Cycle" in the family home in the Paradise Valley. That volume became "Eragon," the movie.

Livingston has Beetlejuice for lunch. At least it does on the occasions when Michael Keaton comes over the hill from his place on the West Boulder to dine at Carole Sullivan’s Mustang Cafe. Alas, Keaton was nowhere to be seen last week in the days following his big win for best picture, "Spotlight," at the Academy Awards.
"This town connects directly with Los Angeles on the Sagittarius Line," Ed Turner explained. "That’s why the movie stars feel comfortable. They come here for regeneration. It’s just a fact they have."

The heyday long past, railroaders still spit, polish and fix locomotives at Livingston shop
Trains don’t rattle and toot through downtown Livingston like they used to.
That doesn’t prevent the Murray Hotel from providing its guests a special amenity: Earplugs.
A packaged pair at the head of each bed is labeled for use "if by chance you don’t find train whistles romantic during the night."
For much of its history, Livingston thrived and set its pocketwatches to those whistles.
