Produktbeschreibung
- The Lost Lines of England series documents a lost age of steam train travel that thrived throughout the country from the mid-19th century to the early to mid-20th century. - An informative, accessible and portable resource for the train enthusiast as well as the general reader, and a superb souvenir or gift for visitors past and present. - Photo illustrated throughout, including many images that are appearing in print for the first time. The Yatton to Witham line was one of the prettiest and best-loved railways in Somerset and is remembered with great affection by locals and railway enthusiasts alike. It ran along the edge of the Mendip Hills through Cheddar, Wells and Shepton Mallet. Today, walkers and cyclists enjoy stretches of it as the Cheddar Valley path. This nostalgic journey along its tracks uses many previously unseen photographs and will bring back memories of the line in its heyday, picturing the trains that once ran on it.
