The North Yorkshire Moors Railway is the UK’s leading heritage railway, carrying holidaymakers from the popular seaside resort of Whitby across the spectacular North Yorkshire Moors to the market town of Pickering. The line has been made famous by the TV programme ‘Heartbeat’, in which the station and village at Goathland features prominently as the fictional Aidensfield, and more recently by Channel 5’s ‘fly on the wall’ documentary ‘Yorkshire Steam Railway’. The author is not only a skilled photographer, but also a full time member of the railway’s staff, which gives him a unique ability to capture the behind the scenes activities on the railway.

The simple and lightweight construction, with minimal land requirements, means that miniature railways can be quite ephemeral in nature. The author, a much published writer on the miniature railway scene, both in the UK and overseas, has put together this collection of 37 miniature railways from around the UK which are no longer with us. Each line has a chapter of its own, consisting of a brief outline of the line’s history and route, along with a selection of photographs which illustrate the character of the featured railway.
