Σύνοψη βιβλίου
Flitly-Smith studied railways probably like no other covering areas which most mortals would ignore or pass over as irrelevant to their own interest. Consequently much would have been lost to history had it not been for his recently discovered texts on amongst things as, 'The facilities of the Somerset & Dorset', 'Hammock (sleeping) cars in WW2', 'Water troughs on the Isle of Wight', 'Pullman on the Listowel & Ballybunion' and of course 'GWR Signal Box Cat'. I promise most have more than a grain of truth, so if you are or know someone who professes to be a rail expert, let them wile away an evening or two seeking out the truth - or not as the case maybe! Beautifully illustrated both with the genuine photograph and the drawings of the renowned Peter Barnfield, this is a book to enjoy, entertain and amuse.
