Lost Lines

The 80 mile long line from Shrewsbury to Aberystwyth is not lost in the sense that some of the long closed railways covered in this series are lost. However, most of the infrastructure, character and charm it had in its steam age heyday has gone. This book takes a nostalgic look back to those days, when it had its own named train, the Cambrian Coast Express, goods trains and traditional semaphore signalling.
