The is the story of the railway starting from the public meetings in the 1890s, to the opening in 1915, through the boom times of the 1920s when the rural communities depended on the goods trains and enjoyed the luxury of daily passenger services to Ulverstone, to the closure in 1955. Layout diagrams of the major stations, route descriptions, passenger numbers, goods tonnages and detailed maps help piece together the fascinating evolution and decline of this Tasmanian Government Railways branch line.Ulverstone's other 'also forgotten' rail connections to the Dewpearl vegetable factory, the PWD depot, the two fuel depots and the belated but crucial line to the wharf are also included.

Never before has the phenomenon of mission mobilization been so broadly researched. In a vein similar to Too Valuable To Lose and Worth Keeping, the World Evangelical Alliance Mission Commission commissioned a research team to investigate what motivates people into mission service from around the globe. Mobilization practitioners recorded, translated and transcribed hundreds of hours of interview dialogue that explored reasons for mission involvement from Eastern Europe, Western Europe, North and South America, Oceania, East Asia, South Asia and East Africa. The data was subsequently analyzed to draw out common themes, and Mission In Motion presents the results of this research. This book is the first definitive exploration of the recent history, ministries and methods of mission mobilization. The evangelical missions community is expending much energy and resource trying to raise up workers for the Lord’s harvest, but is it helping? Are the means, models, methods, and mechanisms being applied to this end effective? What does influence people to greater involvement in mission—whatever they understand mission to be? Furthermore, what hinders it? In addressing these questions, Mission In Motion allows the interviewed respondents to speak for themselves, in an open and frank manner. Some results confirm common beliefs, but others may surprise you.
