Description
Dorset Railways Through Time by Mike Phipp explores the history of railways in Dorset, a county that played a significant role in the development of Britain's rail network. The story begins with the arrival of the London & South Western Railway in 1847 and continues through to the Beeching closures of the 1950s. The book features a wide selection of photographs, many of which have not been published before, showcasing the various routes within the county. From the Great Western Railway's line from Yeovil to Weymouth to the Somerset & Dorset Railway between Bath and Poole, this book provides a detailed look at the development of Dorset's railways. With its unique blend of history and photography, Dorset Railways Through Time is an ideal choice for anyone interested in the history of British railways.
