Unos Cuantos Trenes
Peter Johnson, author of other books from Pen and Sword Books' "Narrow Gauge Railways" collection such as "The Vale of Rheidol Railway" or "The Corris Railway," has created another great book on Britain's narrow-gauge railways. As in the rest of his books he has extensive information and high quality photographs and drawings. Another great literary success of this publishing house that will delight fans of narrow-track or tourist railways.

It is a complete story of the line to date, an enjoyable read and a good pictorial record of this attractive railway. So a good way to spend some time in lock-down!
