Narrow Gauge

Cyprus Narrow Gauge

by Hugh Ballantyne

The author found himself on the island just prior to the system´s closure and his comprehensive visual record is seen for the first time, along with many earlier views. The little known industrial lines are also included in detail.

 

Reviews:

'A worthwile tribute to an interesting island railway system.'
(Continental Railway Journal, No.153, Spring 2008)

'A good account of a railway which suffered from lack of investment after heavy wartime use and increasing competition from road transport.'
(SLS Journal, January/February 2008)
