The book describes the impact of the Beeching Report on the former Great Eastern.

    This book is the first of two which covers the history of the Great Eastern Railway and its predecessors from the first proposal for a railway in the eastern counties in 1811 for a railway from Islington to Wallasea Island and Mucking to its absorption into the London and North Eastern Railway under the 1923 Grouping of Railways. This volume covers the period from 1811 up to the formation of the Great Eastern Railway in 1862.The history is the first history of the GER since Cecil J. Allen's history of the railway which was first published in 1955 and which has long been out of print.The book makes use of both previously published works on the GER and its predecessors, but also contemporary documents such as the Directors' reports to shareholders of the Eastern Counties Railway, timetables, reports in local and national newspapers as well as extracts from selected peoples' diaries. Some of which were not easily available to Allen when he wrote his history of the GER. Incorporating these other sources means the book sheds new light on the Railway's history.The book is intended for anyone who is either interested in railways and particularly the Great Eastern Railway and the railways of the east of England, but also for anyone who is interested in general in the history of that part of England.

    The one purpose of this book is that you can understand the relationship our Creator God wants with His children that He has created on this earth. As you have read and discover how far we all have departed from what our Creator made at creation week, we all need to renew our relationship with our Creator God. My friend, whoever you are and wherever you are, and no matter how far you have gone away from God, this call is for you. Accept Christ's atoning sacrifice for your sins, there on Calvary's cross where the old account was settled years ago! You cannot purchase His Gift, only except His Gift of Love. Soon and very soon,"The Son of Man shall come in the glory of His Father with His angels; and then, He shall reward every man according to his works"-. Matt 16:27. Do you want to be one of those that will hear His voice calling those who Loves Christ? Make your decision today !
