The full account of this history are followed by descriptions of locomotives and rolling stock, the route in close detail, and a survey of SMJ signalling.

All this for just £4.99? There are no ads, but the commercial sponsors get a couple of pages at the end. Sadly the adjoining counties don't include Lincolnshire - it would be good to see more of this sort of guide.
