This product is second hand.
  • Train by Philip Marsh is a richly illustrated journey through the fascinating history and evolution of rail travel. Drawing on material from the collections of the UK's National Railway Museum in York, the book explores how the railway transformed transportation and society across Europe, America, Africa and Asia. From the pioneering age of steam and Stephenson's famous Rocket to legendary long-distance journeys, the glamour of the Orient Express and the extraordinary speeds of modern trains such as the TGV, it captures both the romance and technological achievement of the railway age.

    Featuring more than 200 photographs alongside a remarkable selection of historical maps, posters, leaflets and railway memorabilia, Train brings the story vividly to life. Archival treasures include nineteenth-century travel material for journeys between London and Paris, Orient Express imagery and promotional material celebrating the launch and record-breaking achievements of France's TGV. Written by railway expert Philip Marsh, whose career on Britain's railways began in 1973, this beautifully presented volume is an engaging celebration of railway history and an excellent choice for train enthusiasts, transport historians and anyone fascinated by the machines that changed the world.
