The Great Western Railway - quickly coming to be known as 'God's
Wonderful Railway' - was once regarded as the most advanced in the
world. Engineered by Isambard Kingdom Brunel it was initially
designed to connect Bristol to London and came to develop a
distinct character all of its own, one of the many reasons why it
remains a much-loved and popular area of interest. This book traces
its history covering topics such as the company, its engines and
carriages, its engineers - including Gooch, Dean, Armstrong,
Collett, Churchward and of course Brunel - as well as the battle of
the gauges. Full of little-known facts and figures and with
numerous photographs and memorabilia as well as a timeline, it is a
tale full of record breakers and mighty achievements waiting to be
retold to a modern age.
