Narrow Gauge In The Arras Sector.
£30.00
Before, during and after the first world war. Farebrother & Farebrother. Very large, 274 pages, illustrated with good photographs and large, clear maps and track diagrams, hard back. **The book is also headed Allied Railways Of The Western Front, which suggests it is part of a larger - or future - series, but I can find no other reference to a series of this name. The Arras sector included countryside to the south, but the north was a major part of the industrial and mining area around Lens and Béthune. The authors examine the build-up of 60mm lines from 1916 is studied in detail by area and the contribution of meter gauge lines is reassessed.The role of these railways in the reconstruction and recovery of the area after the war is described. The book includes information on how to find key locations, where preserved rolling stock can been seen and routes for six walks and an urban tour.
