Completely revised and updated second edition of the 1969 classic. This book covers the construction and history of the Leighton Buzzard Light Railway which served the sand pits and quarries for six decades and has been carrying passengers as a preserved railway since 1968. Its detailed discussion of the industrial activity in the area and how the quarries were worked over the years also makes it an excellent reference work for a significant British industry. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos and drawings of locomotives and rolling stock. Includes rosters for preserved locomotives as well as the rolling stock. With 12 maps.
