With accounts of furious flash floods in India, disastrous conflagrations in Russia and Christmas volcanoes in New Zealand, and in over 80 highly-charged color and black & white pictures, this book reveals and celebrates the efforts of the men and women who have struggled bravely to keep our railways open, learning from and overcoming all manner of obstacles along the way.
