Synopsis
Roy Sinclair has a passion for transport and a knack for for talking to people. He has combined these two talents to draw out the stories from the spirited people who have been involved with New Zealand railways, past and present. He has unearthed tales of the pioneer men and women who built the railways, of the rail buffs who lovingly restore locomotives, preserve stations, and collect memorabilia, of journeys on the TranzAlpine and up the Rimutaka Incline, and the stuff of legend: runaway trains, heroic engine drivers, and faithful dogs. Illustrated throughout with vintage and modern black and white (and a very few color) photos. 280 pages with index and bibliography.
