As the physical remnants of the tramway fade into obscurity, this book aims to highlight its contribution to New Zealand's railway history and secure its rightful place in the annals of local memory. Perfect for history buffs and railway enthusiasts alike, this soft laminated cover book is an essential addition to your collection of New Zealand history books. Order now to uncover the untold stories of the Mount Somers Tramway.The Mount Somers Tramway was conceived in a period of time when the motorcar was unknown, good roads were scarce and railways as a form of mechanical transport had the field largely to themselves. The pages within tell the story of its unspectacular rise and fall, a story closely... integrated for fifty years with the course of local history. The tramway reflects the initiative, enterprise and determination of its promoters to reduce the cost of conveying the mineral wealth from the Ashburton Gorge, an area of great geological interest - to the Mount Somers railway station for trans-shipment to Ashburton and beyond. As the remains of the Mount Somers Tramway are now largely effaced, it is hoped that this book will help to ensure that it's modest contribution to New Zealand railway history is not entirely forgotten; and it's significant role in local history given proper recognition. 200 pages, soft laminated cover. Over 180 colour and monochrome photographs and graphics.Read less

Men's Turtleneck Sweater
Color: Black, Size: X-Large
I really like this turtleneck sweater! The material is soft, warm, and feels high-quality without being too heavy. It has just the right amount of stretch, so it fits comfortably without feeling tight around the neck or sleeves. I’ve worn it both casually with jeans and dressed up — it looks great either way. I order another one in a different color.
