Reviews
Praise for The Railway Adventures: 'If you want to have a railway adventure, this excellent book is the best place to start.' - Ian Marchant | 'This is a book which not only conveys the enthusiasm and love the two of them have for our railway network, but really does make you want to take a train journey somewhere just for pleasure and to appreciate some of the history and even the hidden stories behind the stations, the busy main lines and quiet rural routes around the country.' -The Railway Magazine

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
