'The Narrow Gauge Railways of Spain' is the first country-wide survey of the Spanish narrow gauge since Allen and Wheeler's classic 'Steam on the Sierra' published 35 years ago.

Prominently featured are British-built locomotives, some still at work in their 70th or 80th years. The main theme of the narrative is historical, but where railways still exist (mainly in the north where 2,OOOkm of metre gauge survives) the story is brought right up to date. This second volume in the set begins in Madrid with its metre gauge suburban lines, continues via Cercedilla, then north via Valladolid and the Castilian Secondary Railways to the Miranda/Castejon are where four now closed narrow gauge lines are discussed, then to coverage of the Utrillas line, then coverage of Europe's longest narrow gauge line at El Ferrol on the border with France.
