Two seasoned railway photographers have come together for a remarkable collaboration that brings the beauty of the Yorkshire Dales to life in words and images. Since 1967, David Joy has authored over 50 books on railways and various facets of the Yorkshire Dales, while Gavin Morrison, one of Britain's most renowned railway photographers, has compiled more than 60 books and earned a reputation for the exceptional quality of his work. To commemorate their forty years of working together, they have created a book that is both informative and visually stunning. Gavin began by selecting over 150 of his favourite photographs showcasing lines serving the Dales. David then penned an evocative text that highlights the significant changes these lines have undergone since the late 1950s to the present day. The result is a nostalgic and evocative portrayal of railways in a glorious corner of what is affectionately known as "God's Own County."

The coverage of this book is extensive, encompassing the legendary Settle to Carlisle railway, as well as many other lines that wind their way through the picturesque landscapes of Nidderdale and Wensleydale. It also includes electrified routes that transport commuters into the heart of Leeds, showcasing the evolution and development of the railway system in this region.

Through their combined efforts, David Joy and Gavin Morrison have created a masterpiece that transports readers back in time to a era when the railways were the primary mode of transportation and the Yorkshire Dales were a paradise waiting to be explored. This book is a must-have for anyone with an interest in railways, history, or the natural beauty of the Yorkshire Dales.
