Paul Atterbury has a wealth of memories & stories about the many railway journeys he has taken in Britain, which are shared in this wonderfully nostalgic book. The text & captions will provide Paul`s personal response to the wide range of photographs & ephemera that make Paul`s titles so popular. ...

During the 1960s & early 1970s Britain was devastated by railway closures & many parts of the country were left without any kind of railway service. The timetables of the 1950s & early 1960s are therefore filled with journeys which are now either impracticable or impossible, & the landscape of Britain is scattered with the remains of abandoned railway infrastructure. In this nostalgic journey, Paul Atterbury traces the routes that have long since been abandoned but are nevertheless still rich in railway culture. Paul Atterbury`s Lost Railway Journeys is not just about closed lines; it is about memory, nostalgia & imagination. Walking old railways is now a national pastime, while many miles of lost lines have also been saved as preserved or heritage railways. The lines & journeys in this book are arranged regionally, & have been selected to show the diversity of the routes that were lost. They are depicted both in their prime & as surviving remains integrated within the landscape, waiting to be rediscovered by the generations that knew them best. ...

Paul Atterbury`s Railway Collection brings the golden age of railways back to life through a nostalgic collection of Paul`s private photographs, postcards & ephemera, all accompanied with informative & entertaining captions. In this entertaining collection Atterbury takes a personal perspective, charting his favourite journeys, stations & trains. Structured into the seven former BR regions, the book explores the whole of the British network from the 1950s to the 1980s. With entirely new & never seen before illustrative material, this collection is a fresh & fascinating celebration of railway nostalgia. ...
