North Yorkshire Railway Stations follows on from Peter Tuffrey’s two previous
publications: South Yorkshire Railway Stations and West Yorkshire Railway
Stations. Like the latter two, it aims to provide an illustrated A to Z list of
railway stations in the area.
Some 230 pictures are included, depicting stations in their prime as well as
those which have closed and found other uses. The older pictures have been
drawn from Peter’s own collection, the Yorkshire Post archives and individual
collections. North Yorkshire possesses some fine countryside and the railway
stations were often built to blend with it, like the ones on the Esk Valley and
Forge Valley lines. Some have been reopened and restored like Goathland
and Grosmont and they can be found on North Yorkshire’s preserved lines
which are amongst the best in Britain.
For people with an eye for unique railway architecture and a desire to reflect
on the golden age of railways this book is a must for them.
