THE DISTRICT CONTROLLER`S VIEW NO. 2 CHESTER HOLYHEAD. ISBN: 9781901056309
by J P Williams
The North Wales Mainline served three distinct areas: the heavily industrial Deeside district, the Lancashire residential area between Prestatyn and Llandudno and the remote mountain area of North Wales. The trains were as diverse as the country they served and varied from Cauliflower hauled local goods services west of the Conway to the lordly Irish Mail and from the Llandudno based 'club' residential expresses to a series of local stopping trains which operated between Rhyl and Chester. This book puts the reader in the place of the District Controller for twenty fours hors as he superintends the working of the line, showing each train in a typical mid 1950s day and the sequence of events throughout the day. Also included are the full working of the line – passenger and goods – the services over the connecting branch lines and the locomotive allocations for each of the North Wales sheds for the entire decade.
