Content:
This is an account of the impact made by railways on Victorian society in Bedfordshire between 1846 and 1890. There are chapters about the main railway lines through and within the county; schemes that failed; contractors and navvies, travelling by rail; accidents; railwaymen; and crime. Two maps illustrate railways built 1846-1872 and those proposed but not built 1844-1910. Appendices contain a selection of timetables and fares (including five special excursion timetables) of LNWR, MR and GNR and their branches.
