If you like old railway maps, you'll love this atlas

This atlas brings together Macaulay's 1881 railway map of Britain, with the detailed Railway Clearing House junction diagrams of a similar period.It's fascinating to compare the rails on the ground then, when new construction was still underway in many parts of the country, with today's network.Look at Newcastle, when there was only the High Level Bridge and trains on the East Coast route would've had to reverse there. Or Manchester, before the Midland opened its direct line through Disley Tunnel and the LNW hadn't built the Styal Loop. Or when Wimborne was THE railway junction of Dorset.Equally of interest are some "might-have-beens" such as a line from Upwey (north of Weymouth}, through Bridport to Chard, or from Crediton to Newton Abbot.Quality of reproduction, bearing in mind the age of the originals, is very good. For those who have the old David & Charles reprint of the 1887 Bradshaw timetable, this book provides the perfect accompaniment.
