The GWR Handbook: The Great Western Railway 1923-1947

“248 p. : 27 cm Includes bibliographical references (p. [241]) and index”. Known by the dedicated as 'God's Wonderful Railway', the Great Western Railway (GMR) - uniquely among Britain's railways - retained its identity from the time of its incorporation in 1835 until nationalisation in 1948 and therefore has a particularly special heritage. This book tells the story of the GMR.
