Produced in conjunction with Kidderminster Railway Museum, this book is the result of twenty years of comprehensive research into various aspects of the origins and and development of railways in the city.Details are provided on the rivalries that existed between the railway companies, their Directors, Engineers and Secretaries, the infrastructure, including the stations and bridges, and also how the railways were operated.A previously unrecorded aspect of railway operation that has taken almost seven years of research and discussion with local railwaymen is the detail of how the sidings within the city were operated.Extensive use has been made of original source material that now challengessome of the generally-held views of the history of Hereford.
