OVERVIEW:
One
of Britain's most famous railways, whose route covers 500 miles
of spectacular Scottish scenery and which operates in the face
of severe conditions. This history of the line, the late H.A.Vallance's
classic of railway literature, has again been updated, by A.J.Lambert.
The story now includes the changes and controversies of the nineteen
nineties, a period of great change for the railway and the communities
it serves.

Railways
of the Scottish Highlands Series
The
five books which follow tell the unique stories of the railways
that penetrated some of Europe's most difficult terrain and opened
up scenery as dramatic as may be seen from any train, anywhere.
Remarkably, at least part of all five systems are still in use
today, some carrying heavier seasonal passenger traffic than ever
before. All these books include colour as well as numerous black
and white illustrations, whilst appendices list all major facts
like openings and closures of sections and stations.
Other
volumes in this series include:
VOL
I - "The West Highland Railway"
VOL
II - "The Highland Railway"
VOL III - "The Great
North of Scotland Railway"
VOL IV - "The Callander
& Oban Railway"
VOL V
- "The Skye Railway"
P.J.G.
Ransom has updated this classic history to reflect important developments
in recent years.
