Synopsis "The Somerset and Dorset Railway: Tales From The Footplate"
Take a journey on The Somerset and Dorset Railway back to the halcyon days of steam to a time when a tablet was either taken for a headache or used to ensure only one train was on a single track section at a time, and blackberries were picked on the line-side to make a pie. The book will take you on the journey from Bath to Bournemouth describing the stations along the route and is complemented by Tales From The Footplate as told by Somerset and Dorset men. The book is profusely illustrated in the style of poster art reminiscent of a bygone era in rail travel and are derived from original colour photographs in the Norman Lockett archive. In 1966 The Somerset and Dorset railway succumbed to the 'Beeching Axe' but is now rising from the ashes at Midsomer Norton thanks to a dedicated group of volunteers. The book is also a guide to the present day Somerset and Dorset Railway Heritage Trust at Midsomer Norton South Station.
