Über dieses Produkt
Product Information
During the course of the 1950s England lost confidence in its rulers and convinced itself to modernise. The bankrupt steam-powered railway, run by a retired general, symbolised everything that was wrong with the country; the future lay in motorways and high speed electric - or even atomic - express trains. But plans for a gleaming new railway system ended in failure and on the roads traffic ground to a halt. Along came Dr Beeching, forensically analysing the railways' problems and expertly delivering an expert's diagnosis - a third of the nation's railways must go. This was the point at which the reality of modernisation dawned and rural England fell victim to the road and car - at least that is how Dr Beeching is remembered today. Last Trains examines why and how the railway system contracted, exposing the political failures that bankrupted the railways and examining officials' attempts to understand a transport revolution beyond their control. It is a story of the increasing alienation of bureaucrats from the public they thought they were serving, but also of a nation that thinks it lives in the countryside trying to come to terms with modernity.

The prices are great and the communication is always very kind and clear.. responses very quickly. Highly recommend this seller.Mystery: Finding True Love in a World of Broken Lovers - Sturm, Lacey (Nr. 156640225832)
- e***p (93)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThis book arrived in good condition and as described and good was good value as were the other books I ordered. Unfortunately the packaging didn't survive Royal Mails handling and this was the only book I received of five I had ordered. I contacted WeBuyBooks and they have been brilliant in trying to resolve the issue of the missing books. They are replacing one that they still have in stock though unfortunately are unable to do so for the other three so are issuing a refund for these.
- 9***h (52)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe item was a great price and arrived quickly. Unfortunately it was damaged, potentially in transit as the box was battered and ripped. I notified the seller and asked for an exchange. The seller replied within a day and said they did not have a replacement they could send, so instead refunded me the total cost. This was really kind and much appreciated! Wonderful customer service!
