Along Main Lines is a celebration of railway nostalgia, focusing on the great main line routes & the glamorous trains that plied them. Lavishly illustrated throughout, Paul Atterbury celebrates the famous main line routes, big city stations, record-breaking locomotives & celebrated express trains. Organised into routes, it covers all the main London termini & their principal routes as well as major intercity routes in other parts of Britain. Built from archive photographs, old postcards, badges & other railwayana, this book is filled with fascinating material that Atterbury has himself collected from tireless searching at postcard & antique fares & auction sites. Many of the illustrations are therefore original & previously unpublished. About the Author Paul Atterbury is a long-time expert on BBC TV's Antiques Roadshow, & has written on railways, Victorian culture & arts, as well as many other topics. He is also the author of Along Country Lines, Branch Line Britain, Along Lost Lines & Life Along the Line. Paul lives in a converted railway carriage in Dorset.
