The Coast Lines Of The Cambrian Railways
- Volume 2 - Dovey Junction To Dolgelley
- including a general history from 1865 to 1996
- The Cambrian Railways Company ran a railway system which easily evoked happy memories. It Ran between mountain Peaks, beside idyllic streams and rivers, and alongside sandy beaches and dramatic seaside cliffs. Each Year it carried thousands of excited children, and their parents, on their way to their annual holidays. Its wayside stations, some quite tiny and some rather grand, served otherwise isolated communities to which it became a lifeline. To those with any interest in railways and how they were operated, it demonstrated the challenge of carrying traffic - seasonally very heavy - over long lengths of single line and over some fearsome gradients.
- This volume deals with Dovey Junction to Dolgelley, including a general history from 1865-1996. Extensively illustrated with photographs not only of the stations, but of the railway and landscape in between evoking the atmosphere of a line now much changed by simplification and modernisation
