Rail Atlas of Great Britain & Ireland 15th Edition
By S K Baker
THIS atlas is one of the staple reference books for enthusiasts and also many rail professionals.
It was first published in 1977 under the OPC imprint – and is still being produced under the authorship of Stuart Baker, more than 40 years later.
Just released is the eagerly anticipated 15th edition, which has been fully revised and updated to reflect changes since the last edition in 2015.
The popular style and layout is retained, and the maps cover main and branch lines, junctions, electrified routes, heritage lines, LRT systems, industrial and private lines, as well as all existing and proposed stations (at the time of printing).
The maps also show how the route for HS2 lies in relation to existing lines. Railways
