In this first volume of a new three-part series, Michael Rhodes is our guide to the Blyth and Tyne Railway, the Newcastle to Berwick section of the East Coast Main Line, the Tyneside freight branches north of the Tyne and Newcastle Central station.
The railways of the North East changed beyond all recognition in the two decades between 1975 and 1995. More than twenty rail-served collieries closed, as well as numerous quarries and two integrated steel works. In this series, Michael Rhodes records the rich patchwork of railway lines in the region, many of which have now disappeared.
Using over 160 photographs and extensive captions, Railways of the North East 1975-1995 Volume 1: North of the Tyne illustrates and describes the railways of the area during this period of enormous change.
