摘要

This volume is a revised and updated version of the author's Railways of Sunderland, published by the local Museums Service in 1985 and gives a succinct account of the railways in and around the city. The first section deals with the development of the network, starting with the eighteenth-century waggonways that connected local mines to their nearest point on the navigable River Wear: in an early example of intermodal transport, the chaldrons were then loaded onto keels to be taken down-river to Sunderland for coastwise shipping. By the 1820s lines were being laid direct to Sunderland and the development of staithes along the tidal Wear had begun. Main line railways arrived in the 1830s, connecting the town to Durham, Newcastle and Hartlepool: in the 1840s these all fell into the hands of George Hudson, who was instrumental in the building of the South Dock and whom a grateful electorate continued to return to Westminster as MP until 1859. Under the North Eastern Railway, the disparate lines north and south of the Wear were finally connected by the Monkwearmouth Junction Railway, a new central station built and a more direct line towards Teesside opened. The rest of the book is taken up with a short discussion of railway staff and a description of some of the more important lines, including those taken over by the National Coal Board in 1947 and which involved a considerable amount of running over BR metals.
