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.

Walking old railways is now a national pastime while many miles of lost lines have also been saved as preserved or heritage railways.
