A Contrast in Islands
In these islands, narrow gauge railways still flourish and are becoming increasingly popular. Running through some of the most spectacular European scenery outside Switzerland, these two systems have many things in common - climate, scenery, continuing purpose - but also a surprising number of differences that arise because of their differing ownership (Italian and French). This book, the first detailed study of both islands in English for over thirty years, explores and compares the history and geography of their narrow gauge railways. It relates the stories of the copanies that built them and their successors; the routes and the terrain they run through; the many spectacular engineering works; the ways in which both are meeting the challenges of running narrow gauge railways commercially in the 21st century. It includes details of the locomotives, railcars and rolling stock from opening to the present day, and lists the motive power and stations of both surviving and closed lines.
Volume 7 in the series 'Narrow Gauge Railways of Europe', 272pp, 235 x 174mm casebound, with full colour dust jacket, illustrated throughout with black and white/colour photographs and maps.49 Euros
