Leeds to Selby

The route has been recently described as Yorkshire’s First Main Line in a new RCTS book title. Herein are some fascinating views in the later photographic era.

There are maps and details of the features which brought such prosperity to Leeds and its district. The links with maritime traffic are unexpected.

Reviews:

'Together with copious maps, copies of tickets, adverts and timetables and very detailed captions, this is another welcome addition to the growing library of Middleton's 'Ultimate Rail Encyclopaedia.'
(R.Rollings, NRM Review - The Journal of the Friends of the National Railway Museum, No.174, Winter 2020-21)

'This volume is an appetiser for a deeper examination of railway operations along this important eastern artery from Leeds.'
(The Railway Observer, Vol.90 No.1103, January 2021)
