The opening of the pioneering Liverpool and Manchester Railway in
1830 marked the beginning of the railways' vital role in changing
the face of Britain. Fire and Steam celebrates the vision and
determination of the ambitious Victorian pioneers who developed
this revolutionary transport system and the navvies who cut through
the land to enable a country-wide network to emerge. From the early
days of steam to electrification, via the railways' magnificent
contribution in two world wars, the chequered history of British
Rail, and the buoyant future of the train, Fire and Steam examines
the social and economical importance of the railway and how it
helped to form the Britain of today.
