In Railway Walks: LNER, JeffVinter, consultant to the BBC’s Railway Walks series, provides an indispensable guide to ten carefully selected railway paths converted from lines once owned by the London and North Eastern Railway.
From the quiet byways of East Anglia to the dramatic scenery of the North Yorkshire coast and the moorlands of Weardale, the routes are described in detail, providing everything necessary for enjoyable days out, whether you are a keen walker, a railway enthusiast or just looking for somewhere special to take the family.
Descriptions include OS grid references, helpful maps and illustrations, as well as comprehensive information about transport and refreshment facilities. Suggestions for further explorations into each area’s industrial past are also offered. Even the ‘armchair walker is catered for, with a well-researched history provided for each of the ten lines.
Railway walks offer something for everybody and with Railway Walks: NER you can be sure that you will be able to make the most of this fascinating and rather different aspect ofthe English countryside.
