Much acclaimed at the time of its first publication, and reprinted by popular demand, COUNTRY RAILWAYMEN is a collection of railway stories of the South Midland countryside in the days of steam. Sam Grigg's notebook recalls tales and anecdotes, humorous and tragic, from that very special community of rural railwaymen going back to the turn of the century, a few earlier though most from the more recent memory. Emphasising that this is not the normal run of railway book, there are over a hundred nostalgic drawings by Alan P. Walker of the days when country life revolved round the railway and its buidings and equipment. Ref A4 2. Seller Inventory # 037457
