A history of Dunedin's Hillside Railway Workshops This well-researched book covers both the engineering history to interest railway enthusiasts, and a political, economic and social history that will appeal to a wider readership. Beginning in the 1860s until its closure in 2012, the Dunedin Hillside Railway Workshop's personnel, buildings, and jobs undertaken have all been captured in print along with a large number of colour and black and white photographs.
