Download or read book British Railway Enthusiasm written by Ian Carter and published by . This book was released on 2008-10-15 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first academic book to study railway enthusiasts in Britain. Far from a trivial topic, the postwar train-spotting craze swept most boys and some girls into a passion for railways. For many in this cohort, train spotting ignited a lifetime's interest.

Today this industry finds itself riven by tensions between preserving a loved past which ever fewer people can remember and earning money from tourist visitors.
