History of Northern Line underground 1967 FA
 

Sixty Years of the Northern by Charles E Lee ,M.Inst T. VGC(near mint)
Pub.London Transport Westminster SW1.29 pages plus photo pages.
A friend who is a train buff tells me this is a very rare
item..especially in near mint condition.If like me (in my London days)
you have spent long hours slogging up and down the Northern line ,you
too may have developed a grudging fondness for it!

Fascinating 60 year history,with lots of early pics of trains,platforms
staions etc,as well as a map of the development of the line,some
diagrams.

Good grief! I have that booklet (but 2nd impression, 1968) and the rest
of the series published around that time!

How many were there? I've got six, but I don't know whether it's the full
set:
Sixty Years of the Bakerloo (1966)
Sixty Years of the Piccadilly (1966)
Sixty Years of the Northern (1967)
100 Years of the District (1968)
Seventy Years of the Central (1970)
The Metropolitan Line - A Brief History (1972)

Got all them, plus M A C Horne's "A Short History" booklets of the
Central and Northern lines. All mine, apart from Seventy Years of the
Central, appear to be second impressions printed a year or two later
than the dates above.

Didn't all these become "The line Line A Brief History" in the 1970s?

Eg, "The Northern Line A Brief History" (1973) contains what was in
"Fifty Years of the Hampstead Tube" and "Sixty Years of the Northern".

The latest equivalents seem to be "The line Line An Illustrated
History", eg I've got the Bakerloo Line, published 2001.

I've got the latter and it is a different format. The former I don't
think I've ever seen.

Which suggests to me that Capital Transport have now cornered this market.

Apart from

Seventy Years of the Central (1970): SBN 85329 013 X

that John Salmon mentions, that also omits:

Sixty Years of the Piccadilly (1966)
100 Years of the District (1968)
Sixty Years of the Northern (1967)
(and the earlier 50th anniversary of the Hampstead tube book)

and "The First Tube", by Mike Horne and Bob Bayman, Capital Transport
1990, ISBN 185414 128 7

and also The Story of The Victoria Line book published shortly after the
line opened. I have a 1971 reprint of the 1970 revised edition, SBN
85329 018 0.
