Over the past 26 years Silver Link have for been working closely
with many of Britain's Preserved Railways publishing many books
featuring lines the length and breadth of the country. We are
therefore very pleased to have agreed to prepare the official guide
books for The West Somerset Railway and The Severn Valley Railway
as part of an exciting new concept in railway book publishing.
David Mather has written a delightful easy reading volume
recounting the story of the rise of Britain's Standard Gauge
Heritage Railway scene from its early beginnings in the 1960s
through to the present day. In the first section of the book David
tells the story from his own personal perspective drawing on
recollections of the lines he visited and the many trips he took
over the years in pursuit of steam. He records the use of heritage
steam locomotives on the main line and at events. In the second
section David illustrates the growth of the movement through a
selection of preserved lines 'biographies'. In a book of this size
it is of course not possible to include every line in the country
in this section, however...In what we believe is a first in railway
book publishing this title is being released on a multiple edition
and regional basis. The editions will vary with the inclusion of
official guide books from a selected railway in each edtion. This
is The Severn Valley Railway edition.
