The Fairbourne Railway Transition Years by Graham Billington. The Fairbourne Railway as we know it today has been shaped by many changes but notably the intensive period of reconstruction in the mid 1980s. Many viewed this as controversial at the time.

This book details the history of the Fairbourne Railway during this transition period, known as the ‘Ellerton Era’, a time of profound change in every aspect of the line, with rebranding, regauging, and new stations, locomotives and rolling stock.
