RAILWAYS –

2nd edition. “Methanga, Cateena, Wilsonia, Dooley’s Crossing. These are some of the long forgotten sidings on the Ulverstone to Nietta railway. The story of this railway is one of struggle from conception to end. From the public meetings in the 1890s where farmers demanded a railway, to the boom times of the 1920s when the rural communities depended on the goods trains and enjoyed the luxury of daily passenger services to Ulverstone.”

Varies from first edition in grammatical corrections and image caption on page 129: “train was at Nietta” corrected to “train was from Nietta.”
