A fresh new look at the Somerset & Dorset Railway, which, by means of detailed maps, follows the main line from Bath Green Park to Broadstone Junction. The journey on to Bournemouth West, on L&SWR/SR metals, is then included, after which we travel along the branches, from Evercreech Junction to Burnham-on-Sea (the original main line), Wells and Bridgwater. There are track plans and signalling diagrams for every location, all in colour. The maps are enlivened by a superb range of 1950s and ‘60s colour slides, picture postcards issued between the early 1900s and 1930, and early 19th century photographs, the majority of which have never been published before. As well as the stations passed along the way, time is also taken to study the industries and collieries the S&D served, plus the Company’s Works and wharf at Highbridge. Together, these two volumes present a comprehensive picture of a much-loved cross-country railway which sadly is now just a memory.
468 pages. 275x275mm. Two volumes printed on gloss art paper with colour laminated board covers, presented in a colour laminated board slip case. HARDBACKS
What our customers say.
"Just had my Somerset & Dorset railway book I must say impressive packing just great.
Plus, the parts of the book I have looked at so far are worth the wait and the money.
Thank you" Jonathan Green by email

"The S&D atlas is one of the best railway books that I have ever seen. It is well worth the money, not least because nearly all the colour shots have never been published before and, thanks to Gerry Nichols of Bristol HMRS, there are plenty of excellent shots from the Mark Warburton Archive. If you want one, order a copy now as they are quickly running out." Chris Youett on Facebook
"Safely received today - what a wonderful tome!" Chris Bone on Facebook
Don't forget when you order from Strathwood we give you a 100% money back no quibble guarantee on your purchase.
