The main railway line from London Waterloo to the Atlantic coast of Devon & Cornwall was never planned as a complete through route.

This map shows the route & local features of the Southern Railway as it was in 1924 &

This book is ideal for countryside-lovers staying either in the south of Tenerife or on the neighbouring island of La Gomera (only 35 minutes away by hydrofoil). Hydrofoil schedules allow you enough time to get between the islands for a days car touring or walking. This book is divided into two parts. The Southern Tenerife section has car tours covering the whole of Tenerife using Playa de las Americas/ Los Cristianos as a base. It also describes several spectacular walks including the famous routes in the Barranco de Masca & the Paisaje Lunar (moon landscape). The Gomera section describes tours & walks all over the island (which incidentally is the authors favourite of all the Canaries). Gomera is still unspoilt & its mountainous terrain affords some really challenging walking although there are ample gentler downhill routes. A unique on-line update service keeps users abreast of any route changes since publication of the book. The Landscapes Series" (with over 50 destinations) has been dubbed the blue Bibles by the " Sunday Times"." ...

Opened in 1984 the Southern Upland Way was Britains first official coast-to-coast footpath. In its 212-mile route across southern Scotland it crosses a remarkable variety of scenery from coastal cliffs at Portpatrick on the west coast through the wild uplands around Lowther Hill to the fertile glens by St. Marys Loch & Traquair & ending in the east at Cockburnspath. In its 21st year the authorities who support & maintain the Way are working very hard to develop new ways for walkers to enjoy the route particularly in making it easier to tackle short sections rather than seeing it as a simple end-to-end trek. The complete route remains an exhilirating challenge for the serious walker but now 64 short walks have also been created which take the Way as their starting point. These are a few kilometres each suited to a variety of abilities & are an ideal introduction to the interest & beauty of the southern countryside. This completely revised edition of the Official Guide"

Includes:: the details of all the Short Walks & these are also shown on the two specially commisioned maps of the Way which accompany the Guide. Walkers will return to consult the Guide & maps again & again
- as often as they return to the wonderful country of Dumfries & Galloway & the Scottish Borders."

Fifty years or more ago the very sight of once resplendent steam engines being towed away & then ignominiously reduced to chunks of unrecognizable metal was ignored by most
- it was simply something that most did not wish to see. But years later the process is itself part of history. The transition from steam whereby hundreds if not thousands of steam engines
- some little more than a decade old
- were rendered redundant surplus to the requirements of the 'modern' railway. Author Jeffrey Grayer
- renowned for his highly popular & successful Impermanent Ways & Sabotaged & Defeated series has now covered the disposal of Southern era steam engines starting from the very early days right through to the end of steam in 1967. The result is a fascinating record of those times while although sad have their own distinctive place in railway history.
