For the second volume of John Swift’s layout plans of the 1950s we move ‘next door’ to follow the Midland main line from Trent Junction to London St Pancras. We call in at Leicester, Market Harborough, Wellingborough, Bedford and Brent on the way. There are side excursions to Rugby, Huntingdon, Northampton, Hitchin, Hemel Hempstead, Acton Wells and Crouch Hill as well.

If you are not sure whether the location that interests you is in this volume or a different one, a combined index of all the locations in the series can be downloaded from our main web site entirely free of charge.

This is an A4 card covered book with, generally, more than 1 diagram per page.
