Bananacoast Railway: Rails of the Coffs Coast, A Century Plus of Service 1906-2015 by Scott Schache

$39.95

The Raleigh to Coffs Harbour leg in 2015 marked a Centenary Milestone for the NSW North Coast Line. The Bananacoast Railway details stories that have faded in the mists of time; the school train named “Old Misery”, tales of escaping Lions and Refreshment rooms decked out with starched white tablecloths, polished silver and serving three course meals for threepence! This beautifully presented illustrated publication has historical and modern references that will delight both the rail buff and those curious about the origins of the North Coast region of NSW.
