Highly illustrated volume covering the emergence of the modern
railway in a unique, essentially geographical way. Contemporary
maps, many never before published, showing the locations and routes
of the early railways. Highly illustrated, for in addition to the
maps it has photos of most of the surviving first locomotives from
collections around the world, and of replicas too, where they
exist. Much of the early railway system originated in Britain, but
the earliest railways in France, Germany, and the rest of
continental Europe are also considered, as are railways in North
America and elsewhere. Several sections cover the emergence of the
first steam locomotives, in particular those of Trevithick,
Blenkinsop, Chapman, and Stephenson, and the historically important
Stockton & Darlington and Liverpool & Manchester railways
in detail.
