Description

This book is a lovely pictorial history of the spectacular Otago Central Railway that once stretched 236 km inland from Dunedin as far as Cromwell; now truncated to the 64 km as far as Middlemarch, the route of the highly popular Taieri Gorge Limited tourist excursion train. With the increasing popularity of both the Taieri Gorge Limited and the Otago Central Rail Trail walkway/cycleway which follows the old roadbed 150 km from Middlemarch to Clyde, this top-selling book has been updated with many fresh photos so that visitors can appreciate the way the railway has looked over 100 years.
The book has 17 monochrome photos plus 29 in colour, 2 maps and old timetables.
