About the Book
"NOCTURNE - South African Steam Locomotives At Night" is a book unique in South African railway publishing. More than 150 photographs (the majority in colour) presented in the course of 136 pages and all depicting the magnificent steam locomotives of South African Railways during the hours of darkness. An acclaimed South African based photographer, in this Volume the Author demonstrates his determination to record these magnificent machines at all times of the night, running well into the small hours in many instances. Difficult it could be, but - when it came right - the results could be stunning, all at night whether at sheds, stations, yards or at the lineside. ALSO AVAILABLE IN STANDARD LANDSCAPE VERSION - see separate catalogue entry.
