ABOUT
A magnificent tribute to the vanished era of steam locomotives and steam trams that once ruled the rails across New Zealand, from Opua down to the Bluff.
It explores the deep human connection and social history tied to the "iron horses" that shaped New Zealand's growth, connecting isolated country towns to major cities.
Written and illustrated by the late W.W. Stewart, a deeply passionate railway artist, photographer, and historian.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome and colour drawings.
