This book describes the rivalry between the Midland and Great Northern Railways on their successors on the economy of Newark-on-Trent. From the earliest railway plans of the 1830s through to the recent past, the author paints a vivid and compelling picture of a complex network of passenger and freight lines, many of which have long-since disappeared.
