🥳 As part of the Transport Heritage Grants Program, THNSW has been proud to fund two publications from the Australian Railway Historical Society in 2023 and 2024. 📕 "Railways to the Riverina" and "Corowa to Kywong", written by ARHS life member Neville Pollard, mark important social, technological and political history in the Riverina area of NSW. Both books are scheduled to hit ARHS bookshelves in 2025. 🙌 Congratulations to ARHS on the fantastic work! | Transport Heritage NSW
