Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

This is the story of how the Great Western Railway was affected by World War II and the valuable contribution it made to the war effort. From the earliest days of the conflict the GWR was heavily involved, and all aspects of its wartime activity are covered, including troop movements, the use of female labour, the changing role of the railway's workshop and docks, and the mass movement of children and wounded. It covers a wide variety of railway operations brought about by wartime requirements, the setting up of the Railway Executive, GWR Home Guard regiments and the story of railway shipping during the Dunkirk operation.
