Lou Rae's history of the Abt Railway — the rack-and-pinion railway that ran between Queenstown and Strahan on Tasmania's west coast, one of the most spectacular and technically remarkable railways ever built in Australia. The Abt system uses a toothed rack rail in the centre of the track, engaged by a pinion gear on the locomotive, allowing trains to climb and descend grades that would be impossible for conventional adhesion railways.
