The year 1963 saw the publication of the infamous 'Beeching Report', The Reshaping of British Railways. In fact, this 'reshaping' involved the radical downsizing of the existing rail network – hundreds of stations would be closed to both freight and passenger traffic together with thousands of miles of track, while many staff would lose their jobs. This series looks at the background to the Report, and how it affected different parts of the country. This volume covers west Somerset, Devon and Cornwall, listing and describing all the lines that closed, the well-researched text supported by maps and contemporary photographs and timetables. It also lists pre-Beeching closures, lines that closed despite not being listed in the Report, those that survived the Report, and the numerous wayside stations that closed on the lines that remained open.In 1963 most places in the West Country were within easy reach of a railway station. By the end of the decade all that had changed. This book attempts to catalogue what was lost and what remains.

PHILIP HORTON

In his earlier book The Last Years of BR Steam Around Bath (Silver Link Railways & Recollections No. 64, 2016),the author described his early interest in trainspotting in 1959/60. At the time the changing railway scene was all too evident.The author therefore decided to attempt to record these changes pictorially, initially using his Box Brownie camera. This book extends his search from Bath to the lines of BR’s Western Region in the neighbouring counties, an area often referred to as ‘Wessex’.Here the region’s boundary is taken as the one which existed between 1959 and 1962. Subsequent major changes to this boundary are also described.

PHILIP HORTON

This book forms the last part of a trilogy by the same author which records the decline of BR steam in ‘Wessex’. The author’s first book The Last Years of BR Steam Around Bath (Silver Link Railways & Recollections No. 64, 2016) describes the situation in and around the city. The author soon extended his search to the lines in the neighbouring counties. His second book, The Last Days of BR Steam in Wessex - Western Region (Silver Link Railways & Recollections No. 110, 2020), covers the lines of BR’s Western Region.

Fowler's Fury is a long overdue and similarly awaited account of the solitary ultra high-pressure LMS steam locomotive of 1929.

Renowned for just one incident in which a member of the footplate staff was fatally burned, there is a considerable amount more to be told relating to the built up, construction, trails and ultimate abandonment of an experiment intended to introduce a new generation of more efficient steam locomotives.

The author, Ian Carney, has devoted many years studying the engine with the result that many previously believed notions will be exposed as folk-lore whilst the true facts surrounding the engine are revealed for the first time.

A fascinating and superbly written account.

Heavily illustrated with colour content throughout.
