Book Description
This is a book about one of the least well known of the ever popular Irish narrow gauge railways. The Castlederg and Victoria Bridge Tramway was located in Co Tyrone in Northern Ireland and was a steam-operated roadside tramway, connecting the market town of Castlederg with the GNR railway at Victoria Bridge.
This is the first book to be published on this line, which closed in 1933. It contains virtually all known photos of this tramway, as well as scale drawings of its locomotives and rolling stock.
