About This Item

Matraville, New South Wales, Australia: Eveleigh Press, 2012. 1st Edition . Soft cover. New/No Jacket. 112 pages b/w photos - The 1880s were a time of great controversy in NSW, with much debate on perceived corruption within the Railways. To this hothouse atmosphere, the Locomotive Branch was a prominent contributor, with strong-minded individuals vying to make their mark. Thomas Midelton, employed from 1880 to 1889, was one of the most active and innovative, progressing from draughtsman to Locomotive Engineer in just eight years, then falling spectacularly from grace under the regime of EMG Eddy. Kicked Out Like a Dog! traces the course of Midelton's career and the power play within the Locomotive Branch of the NSWGR, illuminating a number of previously vexing questions. It is profusely illustrated with period photographs

About Train World Pty Ltd

Train World commenced business at 615 Hawthorn road East Brighton in 1973. From a cabinet in a haberdashery store, Train World grew to take over half the shop in 1974 to take over the entire store and by 1977 it had taken over the shop and the rear residence. In 1981 the shop moved across the road to 624 Hawthorn Road East Brighton. Here too the shop grew and grew. So that by 1995 it had taken over the shop, the storage room area, the staff area, the garage, the rear warehouse and finally filling the entire building. Finally on 1st July 2012 Train world moved again to 290 Bay Street Brighton - Since the 1980s the focus of Train World has been trains and model trains, nothing but trains and everything to do with trains.
