A collection of fascinating railway oddities, curiosities and little-known facts

Who won in a race between a train and a pigeon?

How can you warn bats to leave a railway tunnel?

Before the era of the car, which railway company carried the most prisoners?

Colin G. Maggs has collected all of these answers – and more! – in Amazing and Curious Railway Tales, a compendium of stories, curiosities and little-known facts about Britain’s railways.

COLIN G. MAGS has had 105 books published to date, mostly on railway history. In 1993 HM the Queen awarded him an MBE for services to railway history. He has written countless railway newspaper and magazine articles, given broadcasts on TV and radio, talks to societies, and lectured on railway history at the University of Bath. He lives in Bath.
