Description

No marks or inscriptions. No creasing to covers or to spine. Very clean very tight pages with general traces of storage and with very minor bumping to most corners. 96pp. An account of nineteen independent railways in England and Wales run by Colonel Stephens which almost formed a fifth group when the other railways in Britain were amalgamated into four groupings in 1923. Most of them were stony broke, some had been built illegally but they still survived successfully as transport entities. A fascinating account of Stephens' skill at running railways where many others would likely have failed.
