[Stef · Rating 4 out of 5]

Lovely book about traveling by train with many pictures. Each chapter is for one famous train and gives a short summary of the trains history. Trains mentioned in the book are the Oriental Express, the Toy Train of Darjeeling, the Train Blue, the Blue train, the Carlifornia Zephyr, the Canadian, the Palace on Wheels, the train from Nairobi to Mombasa, the Transsiberian Train and two more I think.
The perfect book for people who like to travel by train and would love to use one of the old, famous ones.
