Om denne bog
This entertaining collection of railwaymen''s experiences presents genuine situations and incidents that occurred over the last fifty years. Embracing a great variety of humorous anecdotes, it charts both successes and disasters. ‘Moving a farm, a circus and a "bing," 245 miles of marooned railway, 246 prostitutes, daring robberies, footplate adventures, animal capers, royal and children’s specials, mishaps, characters, unusual lines and activities and summer madness—these are just a few of the subjects embraced in this assortment of memorable experiences from a number of professional railwaymen. These memories come from the last half century in a complex and varied transport business, culled from all parts of the country and all kinds of traffics, jobs, and events, planned and unplanned. It is an entertaining, instructive, and highly readable feast for railway people and anyone with even a passing interest in life on the railways: there’s never a dull moment!
