Synopsis

For the third and final portrayal of the southern railway in the years of World War 2, this exciting volume aims to present something rather different to the reader. With a further selection of unseen images of the railway in its damaged and destroyed state, this title gives an informative and real-life picture of the Southern during the World War 2 era. In addition to these previously unseen images, this wartime special takes an in-depth look at the human effort involved through records of the bravery of the staff during these hard times. The citations included in this volume make for a humbling experience and a truly inspirational read outlining the courage, bravery, and outstanding efforts of those working on and linked with the Southern Railways during the devastating times of World War 2.
