Waverley
Images from The Transport Treasury Archive
Paperback
Compiled by Jeffery Grayer
Serving only a limited intermediate population scattered amongst a handful of towns in the Scottish Borders the Waverley route was always a difficult line to work and was never a great money spinner. However, the short sighted closure of the route in 1969 left a vast swath of country isolated with two of the larger towns having the dubious distinction of being further from the national rail network than any other settlement of comparable size in the UK. With the opening of the Borders Railway in 2015 part of this isolation has been rectified and there are hopes that further extensions will follow leading ultimately perhaps to the reinstatement of the whole 98 mile route. In this volume we feature images of the line in the 1950s and 1960s before the axe fell.
