Amazon.com description: Product Description: Bradshawâs Guide of 1863 was the staple book to whatâs what and whereâs where for the mid-Victorians and it gives the modern reader a unique insight into the world of the nineteenth-century railway travelers. Built primarily to serve industry and the mail packets to Ireland, the railways of Wales would go on to open up the Principality to tourism for the first time. They also brought communities closer together and many journeys that once took days to complete could now be undertaken in hours. This illustrated guide records the sights to be seen in the towns and cities encountered along the various routes.
John Christopher and Campbell McCutcheon take us on Brunelâs broad gauge lines in South Wales, before joining the central and northern railways, using contemporary Victorian and Edwardian photographs and postcards to illustrate the scenes that the readers of Bradshawâs Guide to the Railways would have experienced. This volume covers the South Wales Railway, the Great Western Railway, the Cambrian lines and the Chester & Holyhead Railway as well as the many branch lines.
