| | Softback (also available as Hardback volume). Of the many cross-country branch lines which have received the attention of photographers and historians, the Banbury & Cheltenham has remained one of the most mysterious and elusive. Yet anyone familiar with the line and its modest stations will be all too aware of the unique charm and appeal of the beautiful countryside which it crossed, sometimes plunging through deep single-bore tunnels and sometimes striding across brave slender viaducts which crews recall quivered perceptively under the weight of trains. The B&C was a curious example of a cross-country line, connecting the company's Northern main line (Banbury) to the West Midland route (Kingham) and the Bristol & Birmingham line (Cheltenham).
