Steve Cossey’s and Bob Whetham’s book was published via Blurb 2 or 3 months ago and is as just as excellent as hoped. Steve worked in the country for several years and is the owner of a Baldwin 2-6-0 which he keeps in Bogotá at the Turistren shed and works. As Randy says he certainly knows a great deal about the country and was immensely helpful when I visited Bogotá back in 2011. Bob’s knowledge of Colombia dates back to when he lived in South America as a child and his photography is superb.

Can’t recommend the book too highly.
