BOOKS ABOUT ENGLAND'S RAILROADS from RAY BOAS, BOOKSELLER in Walpole, NH

Books about railroads of England and the United Kingdom

These books are from the estate of the original owner, and appear to have never been read. They were in storage since his death in 1994 until we purchased them in 2004. Most titles I have found available only in England, so I am pleased to be able to provide them to our US customers without the expense of shipping from overseas. Of course, I fully expect that a good number of these books will head back home across the Atlantic, and they have. Please do tell your train buff friends, or Railroad historical societies and museums to browse this page and to order books for their collections. Here are 325 titles remaining on July 7, 2008 from the over 1,000 we had. Thank you, yours, RAY
