Description

Journeying With Railways in New Zealand by Roy Sinclair. 'In this fascinating book on railways in New Zealand, Roy Sinclair has combined his passion for transport and his knack for darwing oral histories from some of the spirited characters who have been involved with the railways, past and present. In conversations with these people, Sinclair unearths tales - of the pioneer men and women who built the railway system; of railway buffs lovingly restoring steam locomotives; of journeys on the TranzAlpine or Rimutaka Incline; and the stuff of legend - runaway railcars and heroic engine drivers; the refreshment room rush; and the faithful dog that meets the local train each day. The book is illustrated throughout with stunning photographs, both recent and historic.' The book has some crush damage on the top right hand side but the binding remains tight and pages bright.
