Bringing the people and railways of exactly 60 years ago this Christmas Eve back to life, he works towards the nail-biting crescendo of the Tangiwai disaster ... Now updated with a major new development. Note the following unsolicited comment from a reader: Finally! The truth of heroism and self sacrifice - All thanks to Ben Le Vay's exceptional book - So incredibly well written and places the reader right there in the locomotive driver's seat.
