DOWNLOAD EBOOKTasmania's wild West Coast contained some of the most fascinating railways and tramways ever constructed in Australia. Built to tap the fabulous mineral wealth of mines such as Mount Bischoff and Mount Lyell, the remarkable engineering feats of these iron roads in the wilderness became the stuff of legend. Through the intriguing memories of locomotive enginemen, track gangers, 'railway children' and adventurous travellers - complimented by a wonderful collection of photographic images - Railways of Tasmania's Wild West tells the story of life in one of Australia's most enchanting regions.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Derwent Valley Railway Inc. (DVR) was established in 1990 with the aim of preserving the Derwent Valley railway line and creating heritage tourist rail excursions on that line. The re-establishment of the railway will enable larger numbers of visitors to be transported through the valley to experience these activities. The DVR has adopted a staged approach to re-establishing itself as a prime tourist rail operator in Tasmania. The plan is structured so that each stage builds on the successful completion and operation of the previous phase.
