Lost Railways of Northamptonshire

This illustrated and carefully researched book takes you back to the golden age of railways in Northamptonshire - to a time of thriving rural railways, bustling local stations and steam trains pulling liveried coaches across the countryside.

Author Geoffrey Kingscott brings the story of Northamptonshire's railways vividly to life here - the reasons for their construction and for their subsequent closure.

Modern photographs accompany those from earlier times. These, together with specially drawn maps, will help those who wish to explore the old lines and stations that have survived.
