This book looks at the history of the line between Oxenholme and Windermere from inception in the 1840s to the present day. For more than 160 years the line has given service, and in present times, its future would seem to be assured. The early days, when the railway was being planned and built and, later, when it became operational, had often proved to be difficult ones, although during the 1880s there were even proposals to extend the line to Ambleside. The coming of the railway altered and enhanced the economic pattern of the region, bringing a level of commercialization which would not have otherwise been possible. The railway from Oxenholme to Windermere continues to play a significant and increasing role in this state of affairs. 240 pages A5 softback with around 100 black & white photos
