Re: {SA} Mt Gambier & other South East lines

I believe there is a book titled "One Rusty Rail" which covers the history of
some of these lines.  I have not read it, but I understand the title refers to
the appearance of the track after gauge conversion from 1067 to 1600 when one of
the the ex ng rails sat unused between the two shiny bg rails.
