In this book, British railway enthusiast Colin Pomeroy provides a history of the line - from the formative years to the sad ending - and then surveys what can still be seen of the system today. His annexes give a host of detail about rolling stock trestles and bridges, ticketing and the like, and are supplemented by detailed maps and diagrams.He also surveys the private, narrow guage "Ferry Reach Railway" and the railway in British Guiana - where the Bermuda Railway ended its days.
