Dangerous days on the Victorian railways : a history of the terrors and the torments, the dirt, diseases and deaths suffered by our ancestors

Books, Manuscripts
Often recognised as having revolutionised travel and industrial Britain, Victorian railways were perilous. Few other histories honour the lives of the people killed or injured by the diseases and disasters which accounted for thousands of deaths. The victims of the Victorian railways had names, lives and families, and they deserve to be remembered.
