Description

The Epping Ongar Railway: A Unique Heritage Line The Epping Ongar Railway is one of Britain's most distinctive heritage railways. Unlike many others, it was not a former British railway branch line or part of a secondary route, but rather an electrified section of the London Underground. Its closure in 1987 marked the beginning of a protracted process that would span twenty-five years before its reopening in 2012 with steam and diesel traction. This book tells the story of the Epping Ongar Railway's history up to its re-opening, as well as the progress made over the ten years since then. With detailed accounts of the railway's past and present, this book provides a unique insight into one of Britain's most fascinating heritage railways.
