This book contains the memoirs of 23 locomotive enginemen, complemented by 200 magnificent photographs, most never before published.
In the steam era, Australia’s locomotive enginemen endured some of the harshest operating conditions imaginable, with both men and machine pushed to their absolute limits. This is the story of extraordinary men, from a time when railways were crucial to the fortunes of the nation, and when mateship and humour were essential to getting the job done.
304 pages, hard cover, printed on art paper in full colour.
