About the book >.>.> This is a book about railways and about part of Devonshire I know well. My enthusiasms for both go back to early childhood, and were very much brought together during my time as Divisional Manager of British Railways Plymouth Division in 1963-64 The railways have been a force in the transport life of this country for over 150 years; their continuing ability to serve the nation has been much linked with their success in meeting changing circumstances with new ideas and by encouraging forward looking developments. In looking ahead to the future we must, however, always be re ready to learn from the past. That is what this book sets out to do. Here we have the story of the evolution of public transport in the South Hams area of Devon; we see the role which the railway played in that evolution; and we have a glimpse of that famous and successful pioneering company at work - the Great Western Railway.
