In this book, author Brend Hoffman traces the origins and history of the Rheinische Eisenbahngesellschaft, one of Germany's oldest railway companies.
Using text and over 130 archive photographs, maps and sketches, we are guided through the formation of the company and the construction of its lines around the Rheinland and Ruhr regions of Germany.
The use of these lines is further followed right to the present day, showing how these routes remain as important today as when they were built. Well-illustrated throughout with archive and recent photographs and maps. German text. Hardback. 154 pages.
