About this title

Synopsis

Fascinating book, written by retired British railwaymen, that focuses on the freight end of things on the Southern Railway (UK) during the age of steam. Goods trains usually outnumbered passenger trains 10:1 and the author provides detailed inside information on their organisation and running, the locations from which freight was dispatched and their motive power. This book describes the way trains were worked between each station along the lines west of Salisbury to Plymouth, Padstow and Ilfracombe, including all branch lines, on a typical Saturday in 1961. The book is packed with track and data charts that show the times, motive power, gradients, consists, speed. etc. of each train. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos. This is Part 2 of the British Railways Operating History on the Southern Railway -- Part 1 covers Farnborough to Salisbury. 104 pages.
