Book Description
The building of the Garstang & Knot End Railway (there was one T for most of the 19th century) was sanctioned by Act of Parliament on the 16th June, 1864. The final length to Knott End did not open until 29 July, 1908. Forty four years to build a railway just over 11 miles in length. This book is the story of the "progress" of the line and the problems that were encountered. There are some excerpts from contemporary histories of the area and then a chronological account of the building of the railway. The route taken is shown with photographs of the remains of the track bed and railway buildings. There are some plans and technical details but the book is not strictly for rail enthusiasts. There is a section on incidents and accidents.
