Manx Electric Railway Saga

Robert Hendy enjoyed unique access to the MER headquarters for over 60 years through his family connections and was privy to much that was happening behind the scenes for decades. In addition his father built up an unprecedented colour photo archive that is the heart of this book, supplemented by earlier black & white views. The access to MER records has permitted this book to shed new light on freight services on ths railway, the long abandoned MER power stations and much more. Robert takes us into a world that was unknown to the average enthusiast and to the heart of the struggle to save the MER and shape its destinies for the better. 144 pages, A4 hardback with over 250 photos in colour and black & white.
