Lost Railways of Essex
In March 1843 rural Essex moved into the railway age when the first passenger trains began to run between London Shoreditch and Colchester. More schemes quickly followed, connecting the Capital with outlying areas. Many of them are still with us today as busy commuter lines. This well written and excellently researched book brings to life the history of Essex's railways. Modern photographs accompany those from earlier times, together with specially drawn maps.

Good overview of lost railways in Essex with a nice selection of maps and pictures included for each.
The maps are not the best though, especially when they appear in the wrong section but the book is otherwise an interesting read.
