Although there has been much published on the Liverpool and Manchester Railway, few publications make any lengthy reference to the history of its Manchester terminus — Liverpool Road Station — the world's oldest surviving railway station and the first purpose-built railwav complex handling passenger and freight traffic on a regular basis.
Oldest in the world traces the history of Liverpool Road Station from its opening in 1830 to closure in 1975. A final chapter discusses rescue and regeneration by Greater Manchester Council and the Liverpool Road Station Society.
The editor is a local historian and historic buildings advisor with Greater Manchester Council; the other contributors are members of the Liverpool Road Station Society and Manchester Region Industrial Archaeological Society
