ISBN 0798117605

Publisher: Human & Rousseau Ltd 1984


Condition: Very Good. The original picture laminated boards are slightly shelf rubbed. This book was read and enjoyed but is still overall very good. The book has inscriptions on the first page and the binding is excellent.

Dealing with the start of the railways in South Africa from 1860 to the Union in 1910, this volume covers not only the entire life of the Cape Government Railways but also the period of greatest railway expansion and the time when the steam train was king. Numerous photographs. 162 Pages. 1st Edition. Condition: Very good. No dust jacket. Binding: Hardcover.

Vividly recalls the saga of the Cape Government Railways, from its humble beginnings in 1860 with Wellington as its first goal, to 1910 with Union, when the system was taken over by the South African Railways. Well illustrated.
