Product Description
Product Description
Filling a gap not visited since the same authors included it in "British Railways Past and Present No 5 The West Midlands" more than 20 years ago in 1987, not surprisingly this important area of the Black Country contains many interesting railways, and is here given a volume to itself for the first time, neatly complementing Andrew Doherty's "Rail Around Birmingham" series. This volume looks in detail at: The former LMS Stour Valley line to Wolverhampton High Level station, with Bushbury shed and Oxley carriage depot; The former GWR Low Level station, the GWR locomotive works and Oxley shed; Lines and yards around Bescot; Lines from Walsall to Rugeley, Lichfield and Sutton Coldfield; Burton upon Trent and its network of brewery railways; The Midland Metro route from West Bromwich to Wolverhampton; The Trent Valley line through Tamworth and Lichfield; Former Midland Railway lines around Tamworth; and, Mineral and colliery lines.

As a former resident of Walsall Hurah at last for a book which covers the town with excellent photographs of the station and the surrounding area. So many other books either only give Walsall a brief mention or miss it out alltogether.
Very good coverage of the Rugeley line which also gets neglected as well as comprehensive coverage of the surrounding areas and lines.

For anyone interested in railway history this has to be a must.
Series of "then" and "now" photographs of local railway landmarks with informative well researched text. The authors really know their subject.
A must for all midlands railway history enthusiasts.
