Since 1967, David Joy has written over 50 books on railways and numerous aspects of Northern England. Gavin Morrison, one of Britain's most experienced railway photographers, has compiled more than 60 books and has gained the highest reputation for the quality of his work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is a sequel to their highly praised Railways and the Dales. Gavin first selected more than 150 of his favourite photographs depicting lines serving the Lake District. David then wrote an evocative text emphasising how they have changed from the late 1950s through to the present day. The result is a nostalgic and evocative depiction of railways serving an area that boasts England's highest mountains, largest concentration of natural lakes and most dramatic scenery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCoverage includes the West Coast mainline running along the edge of the Lake District to link Lancaster with Carlisle as well as the very different railway round the coast between the sea and the mountains to serve Barrow and Whitehaven. Branch lines to Windermere, Coniston and Keswick receive full attention.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Far From The Madding Crowd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46124288672003,"sku":"9781914227646","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0404\/3207\/4914\/files\/9781914227646.jpg?v=1731328667","url":"https:\/\/www.maddingcrowdlinlithgow.live\/products\/9781914227646","provider":"Far From The Madding Crowd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
