About the Book
*** THIS IS THE STANDARD SIZE LANDSCAPE FORMAT 25cm x 20cm version and is A SECOND EDITION OF THIS POPULAR BOOK. Covers are new, content is the same (as first edition) but brightness enhanced, where considered desirable and re-sizing of some pictures has expanded the book by a further 18 pages. This book focuses on the steam operations in the final years of 'real steam' on the Kimberley - De Aar ( South Africa ) railway line in the early 1990's [ set out in chronological order]. A massive book with no attention to detail spared. 178 pages, + / - 220 photographs, enlivened with anecdotal information and an introduction. Selected from 1000's of photographs taken during this period, this is a Volume to treasure. Every page is available on Preview, so you can see exactly what it is you are buying. The Author believes this is only right, considering the inevitable high cost of 'print on demand' books.
