From Lostwithiel to the China Clay Rails takes the reader on a train journey from the estuary of the River Fowey to the port of Par, thence on a circular tour across the spine of Cornwall to the Atlantic Coast at Newquay and back, travelling through the heart of china clay country. Over a period of fifty years from the 1960's, we visit many of the china clay lines now long gone with many jaw dropping images taken "Then and Now" showing the great changes both on and off the rails. A host of memories are recalled and updated in this treasure chest of very rare colour material, mostly previously unpublished and almost all taken by the author.
Bernard Mills is happily married to Audrey for over 30 years. He is a semi retired railway man with over 50 year's service, and also a dedicated railway enthusiast who has been photographing trains and railways in colour for over half a century. With a wealth of experience he is an acclaimed speaker on the subject with his popular now digital slide shows, and the author of a number of much sought after railway books.
