The Borders' Last Days of Steam
Now that the Waverley line may finally be reopened, the Borders could soon enjoy the convenience of a railway once again. But in the meantime, this book recalls the line and the many branches as they once were, back in the fifties and sixties before the closures were made. Covering the whole of the Borders region, including England, this collection of fifty-five images includes the stations at Langholm, Reston, Burnmouth, Eyemouth, Coldstream, Jedburgh, Galashiels, Hawick, Carlisle, and many others, as well loads of evocative photographs of locomotives puffing across the rolling Borders countryside.
