Stockport Train Crash
This A4 book covers a catalogue of human errors leading up to Stockport's only fatal rail disaster, in thick fog, on the viaduct, in 1948.
It includes an eye witness account, from a passenger who still remembers that fateful night.
It can be bought from the St. Mary's Heritage Centre, open on market days, for £6.
