A Contribution to Railway History

The November 2019 issue of Pine Cone, The Newsletter of The Friends of St Mary’s Church, Wreay, takes a railway theme with articles on the oak tree which Sarah Losh ensured was protected when the railway line ran through her estate south of Carlisle; on the death of the labourer working on the construction of the Lancaster and Carlisle railway through Wreay in 1845; and on the history of Wreay and the railway, drawing on the text made available in the Sarah Losh Heritage Centre at Wreay.
