This book can easily be considered the definitive work on the South African railway system (including Namibia) and its sheer size and comprehensive content defy belief at times.
At 426 pages, with a comprehensive and extensive selection of colour and black and white pictures, author Jean Dulez has excelled all expectations on such a definitive book.
In reality the book is an update of a previous one, “Railways of Southern Africa 150” by the same author published in 2011 for the 150th anniversary of the railway in South Africa from 1850 to 2010.
