Written as the Cambrian Railways lost their independence to the Great Western in the grouping of the 1920s, this biography of a railway tells of its birth and parentage in Oswestry, the line from Oswestry to Newtown, the push from the Severn to the sea, the Battle of Ellesmere, and the romance and pathetic humour of the Coast Section.

Affectionate, anecdotal railway history for anyone who loves mid-Wales or the steam age. Download the free EPUB.
