Railways & The Public, Proving That Fares For Any Distance Of 1st Class, 1s
Branch Lines of the Chester & Holyhead Railway
Explores the history and decline of branch railways in north Wales, focusing on their construction, operation, and eventual closures.This book complements the author's previous book on the Chester and Holyhead Railway and completes the story of railways associated with the London and North Western Railway in north Wales. It does so by breaking down developments to three districts working from east to west across the region. The book examines the background to the construction of the branch lines in the context of relevant wider railway developments. It provides an account of the operation of each of the lines with reference to significant incidents on the railway and the relationship of the branch to the communities it served.The dominance of railways peaked around 1914 so the book analyses the process of decline from that status. That decline was relatively rapid and featured several rounds of closures of stations and branches, culminating in the notorious Beeching cuts of the 1960s that eventually left north Wales with fewer than fifty miles of branch railways - under 20% of the original total.The book has maps and tables that provide an overview of the detail contained in the text and the 150 photographs. The book concludes with an overview of the railway system in north Wales. It reflects on how reductions might have been made without depriving so much of the region of a presence on the network, and how the railway policies adopted by private companies and the later nationalized industry paid too little attention to the relationship between the region and its trains.

The Evolution of the British Roadster
From the rattle of an MG M-Type on a 1930s back lane to the howl of a TVR Griffith on a Welsh mountain pass, The Evolution of the British Roadster tells the complete, fact-based story of Britain's most beloved sporting machines. This compelling narrative history traces the rise, heyday, and gradual decline of lightweight two-seaters built for joy rather than utility-icons like the MG Midget, Triumph Spitfire, and Austin-Healey Sprite. Rooted in postwar optimism and built with simplicity, flair, and often just a little oil on the driveway, these cars conquered not just British B-roads but American highways, Alpine rallies, and club racing paddocks.Drawing on decades of manufacturing milestones, competition history, and ownership culture, the book explores how these open-top machines shaped Britain's image abroad and ignited a passion for driving at home. It is a chronicle of engineering ingenuity, export ambition, and the grassroots spirit that kept these machines alive long after their factories fell silent. From kit car rebels to MX-5-inspired revival attempts, the story continues-one cylinder, one Sunday drive at a time.
A Concise History of Jaguar
Founded in 1935 by William Lyons, the car company that would be called Jaguar after the Second World War soon became established as a manufacturer of innovative, high-performance sports cars. In this book, motoring expert Ray Hutton reveals the full inside story of Jaguar, not only through its cars but also the personalities and changes of ownership that accompanied Jaguar through the years. From the competitive success of the early SS sports cars and the launch of the Jaguar XK120 car and engine in 1948, through the stunning arrival of the Jaguar E-Type, icon of the swinging sixties, the range of sporting saloons such as the 2.4 and S-Type and the launch of what became the definitive Jaguar for 20 years in the form of the XJ6, Jaguar continued to be a byword for quality and exceptional performance. As this book shows, Jaguar also had to navigate the tight bends of changing ownership against the backdrop of industrial unrest in the British motoring industry. While other famous British car marques were consigned to history, however, Jaguar somehow found a way to renew itself and met the challenges of new markets and tastes. Independent ownership under Sir John Egan in the 1980s was followed by ownership by Ford and the launch of new models such as the X-Type, which broke the traditional design mold. After sale to Tata Motors, Jaguar reinvented itself again with the successful F-Pace SUV. Based on the author's inside knowledge and expertise in the British car industry, this book is an essential companion to Britain's most successful luxury sporting car manufacturer.
