Journeying With Railways in New Zealand. In this fascinating book on railways in New Zealand, Roy Sinclair has combined his passion for transport and his knack for drawing 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 the Rimutaka Incline; and the stuff of legend - runaway railcars and heroic engine drivers; the refreshment room rush.
