One of the most interesting and unique parts of the whole national railway network is the line from Ryde to Shanklin on the Isle of Wight which has been operated by former London Transport tube trains since the 1960s. This book charts the history and operation of the line since the end of steam and the closure of most of the island’s railway system in 1966. Providing a brief history of the LT Standard Stock and why, when and how it was chosen and transported to Isle of Wight, these elderly trains soldiered on into the 1990s when they were finally replaced with 1938 London Transport stock. The narrative follows the operation of the line in the decades since electrification to the present day and the changes which came about with privatisation of the national network. The book concludes by looking at the current operation of the line and options which might be available to replace the 1938 stock. The future of the line is also discussed including the likely extension of Isle of Wight Steam Railway trains to Ryde St John’s. This is a well-researched and very readable account of a unique survivor and perhaps the most singular line in the whole of the Britain’s surviving railway network.

Ottoman Turkey's decision to ally with Germany in the First World War led directly to the British (and French) conquest of the Middle East and sealed the fate of Palestine. In a monstrous betrayal of its people (93% of them Arab) the November 1917 Balfour Declaration withheld the independence they rightly anticipated and, for strategic reasons, earmarked Palestine as a National Home for the Jewish People. The result was the foundation of Israel in 1948. Through ethnic cleansing and massacre, the new state drove out helpless Palestinian victims. They were condemned to refugee camps or to second-class citizenship of Israel. This book chronicles the history of Britain's role in the Middle East.

The Lewes & East Grinstead Railway opened in 1882 to link the rural communities between these two Sussex towns. It was shortly afterwards taken over by the London, Brighton & South Coast Railway then absorbed into the Southern Railway at the Grouping in 1923. BR submitted an application to close the line in 1954 due to declining passenger numbers but fierce local opposition brought the railway to national attention. BR briefly closed the line in 1955 but public pressure forced it to reopen the line the following year, but after a two year battle it closed in1958.By the time of the closure, the Bluebell Railway Preservation Society had already been formed and took over the line. From 1960 it ran a preserved steam passenger service from Sheffield Park to Horsted Keynes - in effect, the first such standard gauge heritage railway in England. The extension to East Grinstead had been planned for many years, the first section north from Horsted Keynes opened in 1990, but the extension was not completed until 2013.This book is an accessible history of the Lewes & East Grinstead railway from its 19th century origins to the present day when it now runs once again to East Grinstead. The book is illustrated throughout with historical photographs, many from the Bluebell Railway's archives, as well as stunning colour photographs of the Bluebell Railway in action up to the present day.
