Talks about: the West Coast Main Line from Madeley to Rugeley Trent Valley; the Potteries main line from Harecastle to Norton Bridge and Colwich; and the Potteries loop line. This book also talks about lines radiating from Stoke-on- Trent; the Leek and Manifold Valley Light Railway; the Churnet Valley line; and lines around Stafford and Uttoxeter.

The railway was an example to the world after double engines were introduced in Victorian times. The revival of this unique line was thus of immense importance and this prolonged task is recorded herein in colour - 28 years of toil in impressive images.

Takes us on a journey up the narrow-gauge line that winds for 12 miles up the valley of the River Rheidol to its terminus nearly 700 feet above sea level at Devil's Bridge. This book looks at the early history of the railway in the Aberystwyth area, as well as the line's locomotives, coaches, and wagons. schovat popis
