Description
The Meon Valley Railway: Closure and Beyond by Kevin Robertson This third volume tells the story of the railway in its final months leading to closure, the last trains, and the gradual decay that followed. It also explores how sections remained in operational use for some years afterwards and recounts the abortive preservation scheme at Droxford. The book provides a detailed account of the railway's decline and the efforts made by enthusiasts to preserve it. Robertson's research sheds light on this often-overlooked period in British railway history, offering a unique perspective on the Meon Valley Railway's closure and its lasting impact. Through its pages, the author brings to life the people and places involved in the railway's story, providing a nuanced understanding of this significant chapter in the UK's transportation history.
