Nestled in the shadows of the Victorian Alps, the majestic Ovens and King River valleys first attracted prospectors during the 1850s gold rush. When the railway age arrived in the north east, iron roads were pushed through to the townships of Beechworth, Yackandandah, Bright and Whitfield.
This book is the story of these fascinating railways, built to serve isolated settlements in the days of the horse and cart. Hardbound with 148 full-colour pages, this unique publication is complimented by over 150 photographs. A fascinating insight into the history of the Victorian Railways and the north east.
