The pre-Grouping Companies were fiercely competitive and would
defend any incursion by another company penetrating what they
considered to be their ‘territories’. Nevertheless, at times
they would cooperate. This cooperation resulted in a large number
of Joint lines. These Joint lines ranged from fully independent
operations, complete with their own staffs, locomotives and rolling
stock, to short lengths of railway used by the Joint companies, the
cost of maintenance of which was shared. There were more than
seventy of these Joint lines, and all feature in this series by
popular railway author Patrick Bennett. This volume focuses on
those found in Scotland the North of England.
