An Illustrated History of the North Cornwall Railway
by David J Wroe
Irwell Press1995ISBN: 1871608635
In very good condition
Description:This work, published shortly after the author’s unexpected death, is the definitive work on the North Cornwall Railway and is, quite possibly, the best book written on any part of the Southern Railway’s “Withered Arm”. The author left no stone unturned in his search for information, there are exceedingly well documented accounts of the background to events leading to the Railway’s promotion, to its survey and eventual construction. The line is described in great detail with vast amounts of background information and anecdotes. Traffic, operating and eventual sad decline and demise are all documented faithfully. The book is published to a very high standard on glossy paper and is peppered with high quality photographs and diagrams. For anyone with an interest in the difficulties of railroading through the inhospitable Cornish countryside, or simply wants to indulge in the nostalgic past of one of our long-lost but not forgotten railways there is no book better than this.
