20 years since the book The Railways of New Zealand was published


The Railways of New Zealand: a journey through history was co-published by us 20 years ago this month. This was the first book of ours to make the national best-seller list where it stayed for 3 months, which demonstrated to bookshops that there are lots of people out there interested in this country's transport history (although some who have taken over shops since then need to be informed - for example, Te Papa [National Museum] has 116 NZR models in its collection, but how many books on the subject does it have in its shop? You guessed it.)

We have a very small number (about 15) of the second edition of this book from 2001 available in our online shop.
