The Southwold Railway 1879–1929: The Tale of a Suffolk Byway (Narrow Gauge Railways)
Share This
Description
A journey through the history of this railway that brought passengers to the English seaside for fifty years. Includes maps and photos.
The Southwold Railway was a delightful example of one of East Anglia's minor railways: A 3ft gauge railway, single track, just over eight miles long from Halesworth (connections to London) across the heathland and marshes of East Suffolk to the seaside resort and harbor of Southwold.
This book collates the research and memories of one of the last surviving passengers with maps and pictures to tell a fascinating tale of immaculate passenger service, management from a distant London office, closure at very short notice, and twenty-first century revival.
