A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The third volume in rail expert Jeffery Grayers s acclaimed series on closed railways: this time featuring the county of Wiltshire. Forty years or more ago, the idea of recording the demolition of a railway was something few considered undertaking, with the result that images from the period are both rare and sought after. Such views depict a time of transition, gone were the trains, yet redevelopment was still some way into the future. Ironically it is also now a period many look back to with nostalgia in mind and they will not be disappointed in this new volume. Wiltshire is rich in its railway heritage and so lines such as the MSWJ, Calne, Malmesbury, and Devizes routes feature, as well as a glimpse at some former Southern lines that once crossed parts of the county. This enchanting new title following the lines of Wiltshire includes a variety of fascinating full colour images, required reading for every rail enthusiast and those interested in the beautiful county of Wiltshire.
