Items related to Australian steam
Fascinating look at the steam railways of Australia, from New South Wales to Tasmania. The author describes the development and use of steam in each of the states and provides detailed information on the gauges of the railways, the locomotive classes utillized, and other technical information. He is especially good at explaining how the mixed gauges affected Australian development and why American style locomotives gradually ousted British ones. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos. With maps and bibliography. 128 pages with index.
