Description
Discover the hidden railway lines of Devon and Cornwall, two of England's most scenic counties. Despite being heavily affected by the Beeching Axe, many popular destinations remain accessible by train.
The author has spent years exploring these lesser-known railways, chasing down freight workings that still carry vital cargo, such as Cornish China Clay, to export markets. From rolling countryside to seaside views, this book reveals the unique charm of these two counties through their railway heritage.
