Stock no. 1828656
Published by Light Rail Transit Association. 1st 2013. Slightly better than very good condition.

The Belgian industrial town of Charleroi was served by two of Europe's most characterful tramsways. Traditional two-axle trams still ran in the 1970s and then became part of the local network of the celebrated Vicinal, extended in 2012. This wide-ranging book explores the colourful history of the two tramways since 1940, with insight into the political and economic problems which lay behind their decline and partial revival. Large format. Pictorial cardwraps. Colour photos. Large, fold-out map to rear. 112 pages. ISBN: 9780948106453. A lovely copy, no significant faults.
