Great
Western Aspects No 1
Burghclere Signalman
by Kevin Robertson
An unusual subject which has been
very well received. Using notes from interviews, together with
information from official sources, including the actual signal box train
register, here is a glimpse at one day in the life of signalman Bill Hiscock on
early turn at Burghclere on the Didcot, Newbury and Southampton Railway in 1957.
Written in
an easy-to-read style, this is the first book in the Great Western Aspects series, which also
includes Winchester (Great
Western) - A Snapshot in Time and Sutton Scotney - Life at a Country Station.
