Description
Railway Treasures by Nigel Welbourn explores the history of railway lines in the UK, spanning over 180 years. From the first line lost to passengers in the 1820s to the closure of the Folkestone Harbour branch in 2014, this book takes readers on a journey through abandoned and closed lines. The book features 400 colour photographs that have never been published before, along with maps, tickets, and other items of railway ephemera. These unique images provide an intriguing perspective on what remains of many lines and stations, from large structures to tiny relics of past glories. This collection will appeal to both railway enthusiasts and those interested in the British countryside and transport heritage. A treasure trove of historical photographs and documents makes Railway Treasures a valuable resource for anyone looking to explore the UK's industrial past.
