Description
Step back in time to the golden age of British rail transport with this authentic 100 year old travel guide, "Travel by Rail to Buxton," was published sometime between 1923 and 1927. Featuring a cover adorned in the LMS Railway's iconic Crimson Lake (maroon) livery, it proudly depicts the former London and North Western Railways "George the Fifth" class locomotive 1181 "Totaliser" in its rare pre-1927 numbering. Across 37 exceptionally preserved pages, this delightful piece of history offers an enchanting snapshot of Buxton as a bustling spa town, complete with captivating period accommodation advertisements, evocative monochrome photographs, and original pull-out maps highlighting town attractions and scenic countryside excursions. Preserved in remarkably good condition with no tears, creases, or writing, the guide shows only a gentle vintage patina from a century of careful keeping, alongside its original rusting staples and robust binding. A must-have treasure for railway enthusiasts and Buxton lovers alike.
