In the late 1830s three railway companies sought to establish a presence in Derby and one was the North Midland Railway which constructed a line to Leeds via Chesterfield and Rotherham, but bypassing Sheffield. Railway pioneer George Stephenson was heavily involved with the project. The North Midland was absorbed into the Midland Railway in the 1840s. This volume traces the history, mainly during the steam era, of part of the vital and busy North Midland route - from Rotherham to Leeds. Informative captions enhance the pictures, which are not just of trains and locomotives but also cover stations, signal boxes, freight yards and tunnels, the whole giving a good account of the line's fortunes over the years. This book is the last section of a trilogy - part one covered Derby to Chesterfield, while part two looked at Chesterfield to Rotherham and the 'New Road' through Sheffield. Together the books give an unrivalled comprehensive photographic coverage of steam days on this very important route. Ref FF 1.…
