Branch Line to Dunstable
from Leighton Buzzard to Hatfield
by Sue Woodward & Geoff Woodward
The branches formed part of a cross country route, which served both agriculture and industry. Part of it also carried London commuters, long before the word was introduced here. The sections were always operated by different organisations and thus we can enjoy great variety of rolling stock and architecture.
