New Book - Enjoying the Cumbrian Coast Railway

Landing on my door-mat last week, was a copy of David John Hindle's latest book. Enjoying the Cumbrian Coast Railway.
It's a pity that this is appearing so close to Christmas, because it looks to be an ideal Christmas present for anyone who enjoys travelling the more scenic parts of the UK's rail network (the Cumbrian Coast route is of course up there with the best).
Davids's book is a very high-quality hard-back, all colour publication, packed full of photos, diagrams and drawings. Apart from the railway itself, the book explores the landscape of nature which surrounds the railway, with more than a passing look at the ornithological delights which can be seen along the route.
With luck, the book should be in the shops now and will be an ideal late present for those hard-to-buy-for relatives!
It's also available at Amazon | Waterstones | WHSmith
