The book looks at the trains, infrastructure & operating systems that make up this famous & extensive transport network that is the envy of the world. The book takes the reader on a journey through time from the Victorian steam era, through to the system of today with its new S Stock & futuristic project for driverless trains, which are planned to enter service within the next decade.
