TWENTY-FOUR INCHES APART - The Two-Foot Gauge Railways of the Cape of Good Hope
by Sidney M. Hope.
'This is the exciting story of a group of 2-foot gauge railways which helped to open up the south-west tip of Africa. Some grew up to become broad-gauge lines; the longest, the Avontuur, is still in full commercial operation as a narrow gauge railway, with the magnificent Beyer-Garratts hauling heavy trains for nearly 200 miles of heavily-graded route.'
