Sobre este artículo
Manchester, Bradshaw &: Blacklock, 1845. Engraved folding map, 112.5 x 86.5 cm, dissected into 30 panels and laid on linen, original hand colour, some light staining and discolouration, edged in red silk, folding into brown cloth covers, rebacked, worn Bradford booksellers ticket to front pastedown. The colour denotes county boundaries and railways built and under construction. The map was published in October 1845 as Railway Mania neared its peak: in 1846 272 Acts of Parliament setting up new railway companies were passed, with the proposed routes totaling 9,500 miles, a third of which were never built. Bradshaws railway maps and timetables (in both cases the first national examples of their kind, where railways were the main focus) had been published since 1839. Bradshaws Railway Gazette appeared weekly from July 1845, giving updates to train services and advertising other publications such as this map. Map
