About this title

Synopsis:

The Somerset & Dorset Joint Railway is one of that special 'select' number of lines which evokes a particular thrill among rail enthusiasts. In itself, other than the stiff climbs through the Mendips from Bath to Evercreech Junction and the sylvan scenery through which the line passed, there was nothing to especially commend it to the enthusiast. However, with such stock as "Jinty" 0-6-OTs: 4F 0-6-0s: Johnson 0-4-4Ts: 2P 4-4-0s; Stanier "Black Fives' and the famous 7F 2-8-0s the route exhibited a totally different flavour to the norm. With such evocative trains as the 'Pines Express' and with Bulleid Pacifies also to be seen in latter years, the line was certainly not ordinary. In this volume Colin Judge and Chris Potts give a detailed coverage of the track layouts of the line and include many illustrations of the stations. An invaluable reference work which is a must for Somerset & Dorset fans.

Store Description

BookLovers of Bath is based in the rural idyll of Peasedown St. John in Somerset (God's Own Country) in the south west of England and actually very nearly in Bath. After 20 years of being ?internet only? I have now opened a shop, Fact or Fable, in the premises of our now-closed Post Office. With over 10,000 books in my, recently shrunken, storage unit and another 5,000 or so in the shop I run an old-fashioned book business with every book listed, graded, picked, packed and posted by my own fair hand? abetted by my Jack Russells who are really, not, helpful.
