Read previous line of textfile

I have a text file that I want to read line by line, but
BACKWARDS !!

The ReadLine method reads the next line.
But I need to read the last line first, then the previous
line, working backwards to the beginning etc etc.
(Each line needs to be the right way round within itself.)
The text files are typically 50,000 lines long.

Any ideas?
