In Peter Gray’s Travels – Volume 2: Austria Narrow Gauge & Industry Andrew Fox has put together a fascinating collection of images showing Austria’s narrow gauge and industrial railways between the late 1950s and the early 1970s, the last few years before the end of steam traction and closure of many such lines. The photographs were all taken by the late Peter Gray over a number of visits he made to Austria, including one in September 1963 with the Railway Correspondence & Travel Society.

After the introduction the first chapter looks at the ÖBB 760 mm gauge lines, such as the Pinzgauer Lokalbahn, the Gurktalbahn and the Steyrtalbahn. Other chapters cover the ÖBB rack lines, the Steiermärkische Landesbahnen, independent lines such as the Zillertalbahn, and industrial lines including both standard and narrow gauge networks.

The second of two volumes, the first covering Austrian standard gauge, the images are mainly presented in two-per-page format and are accompanied by detailed captions.

98 colour photographs. Hardback. 96 pages.
