160pp. Well-illustrated with photographs, maps, charts etc. Laminated card covers (with minimal edge wear). Internally neat, clean, bright and tight. 4to. A history of the Somerset and Dorset Railway’s maritime interests and shipping activities, with its fleet including paddle steamers, screw steamships and ketches – a fascinating montage which brings together rail and sea. For over a century, from the 1850s, the ports of Burnham and Highbridge saw much activity with shipping, regular ferry services to Cardiff and linking rail and sea for excursions across the English Channel.
