This little booklet is printed on high quality paper with a card cover. The cover both inside and out is printed in colour with photos and a map. It also states that there were over 700 light railways in South Australia. It begins by defining what a light railway is, then describes examples of the different types of motive power used and the industries and some projects where they were used.

It is a good introduction to the subject of light railways and their history.
