Originally published in 1982, The Railwaymen examines the impact of
the transformation which took place in the British Railways in the
second half of the 20th Century on the people who maintained
British railway services and reveals the change which took place in
the union to which most of them belonged: the National Union of
Railwaymen (now part of the National Union of Rail and Maritime
Transport Workers: RMT). The union's reaction to the Beeching
closures of the 1960s and the Industrial Relations Act of 1971, its
policies on the closed shop, inter-union rivalries, representation
in Parliament and the constitution of the Labour Party are treated
authoritatively by the author who had access to all the union's
records.
