This is the latest addition to the Ian Allan Lost Lines series. As with others in this series, the book is an illustrated record of long gone railway routes seen as originally in use and also with pictures of remaining structures that stand as a reminder of the past. The book includes the Liverpool and Birkenhead docks, lost tunnels and the Liverpool Overhead Railway. The book has some excellent photographs, maps, text and well detailed picture captions. The series is ideal for those who like to spend their time as railway detectives, following up the railway routes of days gone by.
