Название: Rebuilding the Welsh Highland Railway: Britain's Longest Heritage Line Автор: Peter Johnson Издательство: Pen and Sword ISBN: 1473827272 Год: 2018 Формат: EPUB Страниц: 288 Размер: 30,6 МБ Язык: Английский
THE REVIVAL AND RESTORATION of the Welsh Highland Railway is one of the greatest heritage railway achievements of the 21st Century, yet its success followed more than one hundred years of failure. Supported by public loans, its first incarnation combined the moribund North Wales Narrow Gauge Railways, some of the abandoned works of the Portmadoc, Beddgelert & South Snowdon Railway and part of the horse-worked Croesor Tramway. Opened in 1923, it was closed in 1937 and the track was lifted in 1941.

Название: Severn Tunnel Junction Автор: P.D. Rendall Издательство: The Crowood Press UK ISBN: 1785007378 Год: 2020 Формат: EPUB Страниц: 144 Размер: 20,6 МБ Язык: Английский
The Severn Tunnel Junction was the largest freight marshalling yard on the Western Region of British Railways, once stretching for over two miles along the Welsh bank of the River Severn. At its height it was a goods yard, junction, station and loco depot, but it was an important railway community and small town as well.

Название: Early Railways: A Guide for the Modeller Автор: Peter Chatham, Stephen Weston Издательство: Pen and Sword ISBN: 1526700166 Год: 2019 Формат: EPUB Страниц: 192 Размер: 66,3 МБ Язык: Английский
Early Railways, A Guide for the Modeler will encourage and support the modeling of the earliest period of railway history, from the very beginnings of steam traction at the start of the nineteenth century, up to about 1880; a period which for British modelers has scarcely been covered in book form. Over these few decades the railways evolved from something which at the start was markedly different, into a scene that any present-day railwayman would recognize.

Название: Irish Railways in the 1950s and 1960s: A Journey Through Two Decades Автор: Kevin McCormack Издательство: Pen and Sword ISBN: 1473871980 Год: 2018 Формат: EPUB Страниц: 168 Размер: 20,7 МБ Язык: Английский
In the 1950s and 1960s the railway system in Ireland became a magnet for enthusiasts from Great Britain who realized that, as on the mainland, a way of life was fast disappearing as diesel traction replaced steam and the size of the rail network across Ireland was shrinking.
