The Mansfield-Southwell-Rolleston Railway

Following the usual Oakwood style, this book takes a look at the Midland Railway, exploring the history of the line between Mansfield, Southwell and Rolleston. Author, Robert Western, starts at the developmental stages back in 1846 with the act to build the railway, then explores the unrest the local communities felt. The third chapter looks at the demise of the LMS passenger services between Mansfield and Southwell. The fourth chapter looks at the line from 1930 up until the line's closure with the final chapter then looking at motive power. 112 pages, softback.
