Railway Memories No.32 The East Riding of Yorkshire, Paperback / softback Book

Railway Memories No.32 The East Riding of Yorkshire Paperback / softback

Part of the Railway Memories series

Paperback / softback

Description

In the usual Railway Memories style, this bumper book is the biggest yet in the series.

I takes us back to a time when Yorkshire's pre-1974 East Riding was served by a comprehensive railway network.

Starts with text describing the railways' growth, their place in the varied landscape, their passenger and freight services including coverage of the countless steam-hauled summer Saturday expresses going to Butlins' holiday camp at Filey, and the railways' decline, largely at the hand of Doctor Beeching, to a point where only those around the perimeter survive.

Along with the 286 photographs including those on the colour cover, is a wealth of operating data, track plans, memories and anecdotes.

This book does not include Hull which although in East Yorkshire is not in the East Riding - see our other book Kingston upon Hull.

Images of a Rich Transport Heritage. 9781871233308.
