The Midland Railway, Its Rise and Progress by Frederick Smeeton Williams Pdf
Excerpt from The Midland Railway, Its Rise and Progress: A Narrative of Modern Enterprise How all this came to pass the Author has now to tell. How the Midland Railway originated at a village inn in the necessities of a few coal-owners; how it has gradually spread its paths of iron, north and south and east and west, through half the counties of England, till they stretch from the Severn to the Humber, the Wash to the Mersey, and the Thames to the Solway Firth; how a property has been created that has cost of money, and that brings in a revenue of a year; and how there lies before it a limitless future of usefulness, - these are facts which, in the judgment of the Author, are worthy of record. Yet it so happens that the men who have been most deeply engaged in this work have been so busy with their work that they seem never to have thought of explaining why or how they did it; and so the Author has been led to try, before it is too late, to weave together, from the fragmentary records of the dead and from the fading recollections of the living, a narrative of modern enterprise which has been honour able to those engaged in it, and has been wide spread and beneficent in its results.
