Description
Britain's Heritage Railways is a comprehensive guide to the country's remaining historic lines, featuring over 100 locations. Railway expert Julian Holland presents a nostalgic journey through Britain's last remaining heritage railways, showcasing the majority of steam-operated lines. From the Bodmin & Wenford Railway in Cornwall to the Wensleydale Railway in the Yorkshire Dales, this book highlights the unique history and charm of each railway. With its rich industrial heritage, the Bluebell Railway in Mid Sussex is a must-visit, while the North Norfolk Railway offers a delightful journey through heathland with stunning sea views. The Ffestiniog Railway, with its steep hillsides and Victorian narrow gauge slate railway, is a highlight of the book. Highly illustrated with maps and old and new photographs, Britain's Heritage Railways is an ideal companion for anyone planning or looking for a nostalgic railway trip.
