East Anglia's First Railways

0 - Default Title
Description
East Anglia's first Railway, the Eastern Counties Railway, should have extended to Norwich and Yarmouth, yet, despite the extraordinary efforts of a group of dissident shareholders to ensure that it reached Suffolk and Norfolk, the line stopped at Colchester. John Chevallier Cobbold was one of these dissidents and with his backing and the efforts of an ambitious young engineer, Peter Bruff, the Eastern Union Railway evolved. Many of the illustrations used in this book have never been published before.
