The story of the Stockton & Darlington Railway is told here, from its origins to exploit a rich vein of coal, in 1825, right up to today. This railway is noted for being the first to operate passenger and freight services with steam traction.
The book covers famous engines and events, including the nationalization of 1948, and the 150th birthday celebrations in 1975.
