Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pictorial history of the many producers of industrial steam locomotives in Great Britain, from the early nineteenth century to the mid-twentieth century. The first steam locomotives used on any British railway worked in industry. The use of new and second hand former main line locomotives was once a widespread aspect of the railways of Britain. This volume covers many of the once numerous manufacturers who constructed steam locomotives for industry and contractors from the nineteenth to the mid-twentieth centuries.

This book is designed to be both a record of these various manufacturers and a useful guide to those researching and modelling industrial steam.

Download or read book Cumbrian Railways written by John Marsh and published by Alan Sutton Publishing. This book was released on 1999 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The introduction of railways during the early 19th century into the remote counties of Cumberland, Westmorland and Lancashire north of the sands transformed the mainly rural communities. Such industries as already existed were able to expand and new ones could exploit the area and a new supply of labour. Most importantly, tourism grew rapidly in the Lake District as the new north-south rail links transported thousands of holiday maers into the area. Through a series of archival pictures and documents, this book traces the rise and slow decline of the Cumbrian railways.
