Linners Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 I bought my copy today from Simon at the Titfield Thunderbolt. First glimpses suggest this is an exquisite and informative book, and that Lightmoor intend to publish a further Five volumes! I can't wait if they're all going to be as good as this one.

Fenway Park Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Thanks Captain, I missed the fact that there will be 5 more volumes covering Gloucestershire in the pipeline. Neil Parkhouse used to run a book shop in Lydney close to Dave Slater's Dean Sidings and I spent many a time in both premises between surveys. LIghtmoor Press has developed into one of the leading publishers over the years. The shop closed so Neil could develop the business. He has collected post cards and photo collections for many years and this volume is the result of many years dedicated work with Ian Pope. Looking forward to the next volume. As the old Gloucestershire included Bristol north of the Avon and was a large county it will be interesting to see which area will be issued next.
