Excerpt from Narrow Gauge Railways in America: Embracing a Sketch of the Rise, Progress and Success of the New System, and Valuable Statistics as to Grades, Curves, Weight of Rail, Locomotives, Cars, Etc., Also, a Directory of Narrow Gauge Railways in North America Imperial princes and Royal Commissions from Russia, France, Italy, Spain, Norway and Germany. Together with engineers from the United States, Brazil, and the uttermost parts of the earth, have wended their way to the Welsh hills to behold and investigate and criticise this minature iron road. The novelty was so enduring at first. That scarcely a week elapsed without self-appointed inquisitors presenting them selves before the chief engineer and manager of the line, Mr. Spooner, until at last he began to wonder whether he acted in that capacity or as a showman.

Narrow Gauge Railways of Canada is a survey course about one of the most interesting chapters in Canadian railway history. The late Omer Lavallee's original work was published by Railfare Books in 1972, and soon sold out. Long-sought by collectors, historians and railway enthusiasts, his excellent material has now been expanded (over 40 percent) by the author's long-time friend and collaborator, editor Ronald Ritchie. Omer Lavallee's survey indicates the Province of Ontario, Canada, was the birth place - in July 1871 - of the first narrow gauge steam-operated public railway in North America . . . and the Lingan Colliery Tramway in Cape Breton may have been - in 1866 - the first narrow gauge steam-operated railway in the Western Hemisphere. Two dozen different railway systems are covered within the book's twenty-five chapters. There are 192 rare photographs - including a section of 66 full-color photos - interesting sketches, and informative maps of each line to show route details. These are keyed to an overall map, pinpointing the railway's exact location within Canada. Narrow Gauge Railways of Canada contains listings of railway mileage, chronological and geographical facts about each system, and locomotive information. Several other useful features include: time-mileage charts, 50 diagrams, charts and tables, equipment rosters for virtually all the railways, and gradient profiles of three steeply-graded mountain routes. The book includes a specially-commissioned painting by famed railway artist Wentworth Folkins, illustrating Newfoundland Railway's Overland approaching Port-aux-Basque on the last lap of its 547-mile journey from Newfoundland's capital city, St. John's.
