ALLEN Date: 01/26/16 02:00 Re: More Taiwan Steam Author: 1435mmGauge Really nice pictures. Taken by you? Where you visiting or living there?
I lived in Taiwan during my youth, during these years. I have published two books. The Taiwan Railway: 1966-1970 The Taiwan Railway: 1971-2002 Date: 01/26/16 21:39 Re: More Taiwan Steam Author: lynnpowell Regarding the first three photos, what do you mean by "narrow gauge"? I thought that the Taiwan rail system by by-and-large was 3-ft 6-in narrorw gauge......was this particular line an even narrower gauge?
Date: 01/27/16 10:46 Re: More Taiwan Steam Author: glibby I believe that the main railway line down the west coast from Taipei was 3'6", whereas the Hualien-Taitung line on the east coast as 2'6". Not positive of those dimensions, but the east coast line was definitely narrower than the main line.
