Somehow, we are all fascinated by them and have our favourites, personally I always thought the North Eastern Region orange/tangerine ones to be the most attractive, how about you?

 

 

Large stocks of these have just arrived in our Bedford warehouse, take a look for yourself it's a great value book considering how many pages it is and its weight!

Not so much a new title but a revised one to consider, especially if you have been watching Tim Dunn and Siddy Holloway on TV with Secrets of the London Underground, then we are sure you will like this too.

 

London's Disused Underground Stations - New Expanded Edition

£19.95

By Jim Connor

 

Closed Underground stations hold a unique fascination. 
A street level building that recognisably was once an Underground station or a break in tube tunnelling those hints at a disused platform attracts our curiosity.
Imagination can also be aroused. Closed stations can be the subject of fanciful stories, some of which have appeared in print and become accepted as true.
Jim Connor is the foremost authority on the subject of closed stations in the London area, having had an interest in and researched the subject for over forty years.
This book is the fruit of his extensive research.

 

128 Pages copiously illustrated throughout with both colour & black and white photographs from the era. HARDBACK

Just a thought...

Physical Book vs eBook? - We want to hear your thoughts!

 

We are currently investigating making the Strathwood catalogue available also as eBooks in the future and would like to know which would you prefer?

 

We know some who live outside of the UK might like the idea as it saves on shipping costs, others like to collect our titles, don't panic we have plenty in the pipeline.

 

Leave a comment or email strathwoodpublishing@gmail.com to let us know if this is something you would be interested in seeing from us.

A word to the wise for those considering this title, our allocation of just 150 copies from the Fifty Fund has already sold 43% in its first three days since launch, so like the recent limited run titles such as Deltics across the Pennines which all but sold out within a few months, and the recent one on Class 45/1 Peaks which is down to the last few copies, this sets a trend within railway publishing companies as we are all heavily cutting back our print runs, the days of discounted remainders may be numbered.

 

Grab them while you can, as we had a number of late comers to the table for Deltics across the Pennines who were disappointed to have missed out.
