Settle to Carlisle and the Branch to Hawes by Roy Davies

Settle to Carlisle and the Branch to Hawes by Roy Davies. Hardback with 96 pages and 120 colour and mono photographs.

Renowned railway writer O.S. Nock, described the Settle to Carlisle as "Britain's most spectacular Main Line". The 73 mile (115km) line runs through remote areas of the Yorkshire Dales and North Pennines, boasting no less than 14 tunnels and 22 viaducts either up the Long Drag or down the Eden Valley to Carlisle.

The spectacular and often very bleak landscapes, along with masterpieces of railway engineering, including the iconic Ribblehead Viaduct, are captured in stunning photographs many in colour throughout the book, where trains are often dwarfed by their surroundings.

Price is £25.50 including postage and packing
