Australian Railway History Magazine July 2017 Edição anterior

The July2017 issue of ARH opens with an account of the establishment of the railway enthusiast magazine Green Over Red by its founder and editor Paul Nicholson. Initiated by a group of young enthusiasts, the magazine offered a new focus on diesel locomotives and safeworking principles between 1966 and its demise on March/April 1972. It attracted a number of contributors, many of whom are still active contributors to current railway magazines.
Part 1 of Rod Milne’s article on the cross-country railway line from Katanning to Donnybrook in Western Australia focuses on the planning and construction of the line. It is rounded off by an analysis of passenger fatalities on NSW Railways and an Explorer item by Philip Dunn on the Victorian Report on trends in narrow gauge locomotives that led to the purchase of the G Class Garratt locomotives.
