Lancashire, Derbyshire and East Coast Railway vol.3 by Chris Booth

Description

A LD & ECR miscellany, the Mansfield Railway and Mid Nottinghamshire Joint Railway connections.  This volume looks back at the very beginnings of plans for the LD&ECR and also at two more connecting lines, namely the Mansfield Railway and the Mid Nottinghamshire Joint Railway. The Mansfield Railway would become a huge influence in moving coal along the LD&ECR lines. This and the self-styled ‘Dukeries Route’ and its connections are seen here through the lenses of photographers from a period of over 100 years. 192pp
