This lavish photographic history of the most beautiful and historic railway stations in London tells a story of power, progress and innovation, from the beginning of steam age to the teeming commuter hubs of today.London has more mainline railway stations than any other city in the world and many of them are amongst its grandest architectural monuments. Its earliest terminals opened in the late 1830s when lines between the capital and the regions were built in the first railway boom. The original station at London Bridge, the capital’s first passenger terminus, was opened in December 1836, six months before Queen Victoria came to the throne. The last main line to London, the Great Central Railway to Marylebone, was opened in March 1899, two years before Victoria died.
Ever since they originally opened, these stations have been at heart of London life and activity and have dominated the architectural landscape. Many are now in the midst of major reconstructions and are the centrepieces for the transformation of whole swathes of London, from Paddington to King's Cross.
This comprehensive story combines a historical overview, archive illustrations and specially commissioned photography, covering the origins of the earliest stations up to the latest reconstructions and renovations.
Written by the expert author Oliver Green, this is an essential gift for anyone interested in the history of London and its transport.

Not new condition; not gift-worthy; no turn off switch
Format: Board book, Format: Board book
FIRST Biggest downfall is that baby can’t just turn the gears and look at the book. I see no turnoff switch and the slightest touch to the gears sets off rather loud/obnoxious and random sounds - clanging & moos in additions to choochoos.
SECOND, not in new condition. I should’ve known this when I took the package out of the mailbox and it started clanging (batteries in). Scratches on the front cover; worn cover edges; not gift-worthy

Amazing value for the price - perfect for my 2 year old book lover!
Format: Hardcover
This is an amazing value! My 2yo loves books and princesses, and I am trying to work on her independence (and find screen free activities). She was able to figure out the reader on her own, and can easily follow along. Of course, she would rather I do it with her but we're working on it.
The pages are very thin paper, but that's ok considering the price for 8 books. Just might want to keep an eye on little hands. The art work doesn't look cheap, and despite the delicate pages the books are good quality. The reader is cool, sound quality is meh but again, under $20. I wish the box didn't have display holes so it would be a better storage case, but even the cardboard is pretty good so I can make it work.
I will definitely be gifting this and buying more for my girl because you cannot beat the value of this!
