5.0 out of 5 stars A rail enthusiasts dream, 23 Jan 2002
By Mr. Dk Hamm "hornet123" (Derbyshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
If you are a railway enthusiast or even if you just want to see just how much our rail system has deteriorated over the years, then this book is a must.

It shows in graphic detail the complete map of the railways in Britain and in Ireland at the time of Nationalisation in 1948. This period was before the Beeching Report was written and acted upon and so the network of lines was much more complex than it is today.

All of the maps are beautifully hand drawn and written and the layout is extremely clear throughout. It shows not only every line and station but also every feature such as goods yards, tunnels and summits. Map references are also shown. I gave this book to my 11 year old son who loves railways and he just couldn't put it down. He found it extremely easy to follow the maps.

The book is a follow up to Alan Jowett's earlier Railway Atlas which shows the state of the railways pre-grouping and this is a worthy companion volume to the earlier work.
