Volume Two of two volumes published to mark the 150th anniversary of the Great Western Railway and its modern successor British Rail (Western) This book sets out to present all the most useful and interesting information about the Great Western Railway and British Rail (Western). It starts with a chronology describing the landmarks of 150 years of fascinating railway history and then continues with sections devoted to books, collections of historic reference material and preservation in both its active and passive forms. Main locations and distances are provided for the principal WR routes and a summary for each secondary route and branch line. The motive power information provides details of the main GWR engine types and is brought right up to date with the current allocations. There are useful sections on travel information and station facilities, followed by a gazetteer of interesting locations and a summary of the achievement of 150 years of 'Western' rail transport.
