For over 150 years Britain's railways have relied on a system of semaphore signalling, but by 2020, all semaphore signals and lineside signal boxes will be gone. In his previous book, author Allen Jackson covered the GWR lines; here, he continues his journey by providing a pictorial record of the last operational signalling and infrastructure on Britain's railway network, as it applied to the former London, Midland and Scottish Railway (and lines owned jointly with other companies).
This second volume covers the routes of the following companies:
- London and North Western Railway
- Caledonian Railway
- Highland Railway
RRP: £19.99
Site Price: £15.99
E-Book Edition: £16.99 (incl. VAT)
" It is again a useful record of what will be history in a few years time, while modellers can find some helpful views of how to integrate semaphore signalling on a modern layout. "
