Midland Main Lines to St Pancras and Cross Country, Sheffield to Bristol 1957-1963

摘要

The relationship of the sub-title of this book to the full title, if indeed it is sub-title, is not clear, and this is symbolic of a lack of clarity as to the book's purpose and intended audience. The glossary is set at a very low level of railway knowledge but the text demands a much higher knowledge of railway planning and organisation in the short period covered; it sometimes reads as a glorified spotter's notebook and at others like a doctorial thesis.
