Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Written by former Deputy Prime Minister, The Honourable Tim Fischer, Steam Australia paints a fascinating picture of Australian steam transportation over ten vital decades of transformation; from two world wars, to changes in leadership and even a visit from the Queen, the century of steam locomotion in Australia is also of great political interest. Fischer tracks key steam locomotives that traversed Australia during critical stages of our nations development and transported soldiers to fields of conflict as we fought in two world wars. For a century, from 1850 to 1950, steam locomotive haulage dominated Australias various rail systems. During that period, rail networks expanded from a few short routes in the big capital cities to huge networks reaching every corner of each state. The book covers the great named express trains hauled by steam locomotives over the decades: Puffing Billy, Robert Gordon Menzies, The Ghan. Special features include information on Alburys break of gauge platform (where two state track systems met), the Amiens branch line (running through Pozieres and Passchendaele stations in Queensland), the garnishee order against the Spirit of Progress, some important characters such as C. Y. OConnor and many more fascinating topics.Tim Fischers story of steam trains in Australia is illustrated with over 300 exciting images from the superb National Library John Buckland collection of photography, many never seen before. If you are passionate about steam locomotives, or know someone who is, then Steam Australia is the perfect companion.
