Author(s): Leslie Dew

NZ Railways | Secondhand | Canterbury

Just as the slogan 'more than just a train ride' has been a valid description of the service offered by the Weka Pass Railway Society on the surviving section of the Great Northern Line, known also as the Hurunui to Bludff Main Trunk, so too would 'more than just a railwaty' be apt for les Dew's well-researched history of this unique district. A fabulous history packed with insight, history and fascinating illustrations.
