Description

Ex-library book with usual (minimal) marks and stamps. Otherwise book would be classed as 'fine'. No other marks or inscriptions. No creasing to covers or to spine. A very clean very tight copy with lovely bright unmarked tape-free boards and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or marked or torn or creased with a little rubbing to spine. 96pp. The story of London's Post Office Railway, one of the most fascinating, superbly efficient railways in the world which performed with speed and reliability, year in year out from 1927 to 2003 when a controversial political decision was taken to close it. Extremely scarce.
