This book is a photographic record, in colour, of the CDRJC in the last 10 years of operation. As is common, the main focus of attention is trains and specifically engines. However, backgrounds include stations and other features.

Commentary is provided on each image, setting it in its appropriate context. In addition, track diagrams of the more important stations and a brief, 4 page history of the County Donegal Railway system is given. That one of the co-authors, Joe Curran, is the son of the last CDRJC manager, Bernard Curran, adds additional credibility to this work, another quality publication from Colourpoint.
