Taken together they tell a powerful story and provide an invaluable addition to the rail enthusiast's bookshelf... The depth of [David Spaven's] knowledge informs the commentary and adds to the enjoyment of this magnificent book' - Farming Scotland; '[S]crumptious must-buy' - Bookseller; 'Even a seasoned enthusiast will have much to learn from this one. Superbly designed and attractively presented, this is a brilliant, fresh and inspirational approach to the subject of Scottish railways' - Heritage Railways; 'This is a volume that can be dipped into from time to time, and on each occasion anyone with an interest in railways north of the border will find something informative and entertaining to read' - Railways Illustrated
