"Along UTA Lines" is a picture album which gives a detailed portrait of the infrastructure of the railway network in Northern Ireland a few years before the creation of NIR. The book features many of the buildings, bridges and signalling systems which were swept away in the modernisation of the 1980s and 1990s. It is illustrated in black and white with a colour section, with most pictures drawn from the McCutcheon archive at the Department of the Environment. Detailed captions give the full history of each station. The photographs are arranged logically by route.
