Railways of the South East During the 80s & 90s

Through a series of high-quality images accompanied by detailed and interesting captions, the photographic lid is lifted on the fascinating variety of motive power and complex operations found in the area at the time. The reader will travel from London’s gritty metropolis, through the green Surrey Hills to the Sussex Coast and the South Downs National Park. The pictorial journey extends into the “National Landscape” of the High Weald and the “Garden of England” as Kent is known, with its estuary marshes, rolling countryside and iconic white cliffs. Covering the latter years of nationalisation, through to the early years of privatisation, the book explores the region’s railways during the last two decades of the 20th Century.
