Mount Lowe Railway

Since Mount Lowe Railway's abandonment in 1936, millions of hikers, mountain bikers, and railfans have followed the long-deserted rail beds to glimpse the scenic grandeur of what was once the Earth's Grandest Mountain Ride. Now, readers can enjoy local history and fabulous vistas without the effort of a day's hike. Authors Michael A. Patris and Steve Crise serve on the board of the Mount Lowe Preservation Society, which provided most of the images in this book from its archives.
