Die britische Hauptstadt bietet Freunden des städtischen Schienennahverkehrs viel mehr als die weltweit bekannte "Underground" bzw. "Tube". Als "Overground" verkehrt eine Art S-Bahn, doch fast genauso dicht ist das übrige Netz an meist radialen Vorortlinien. Manche davon werden bald in die "Elizabeth Line" (Crossrail) integriert. Dazu kommen die fahrerlose "Docklands Light Railway" sowie in Croydon, im Süden von Greater London, eine Straßenbahn, die teils ehemalige Bahnstrecken nutzt. Der Londoner Autor Andrew Phipps gibt in diesem Buch einen Überblick über die Entstehungsgeschichte aller Schienenverkehrsmittel sowie den dort eingesetzten Fahrzeugen. In Atlas-Form findet der Leser am Ende des Buchs detaillierte Netzpläne des gesamten Großraums von London, in dem rund 9 Mio. Menschen leben. //
The British capital has much more to offer to urban rail enthusiasts than the world-famous "Underground" or "Tube". There is also the "Overground" which provides an S-Bahn-style service. It is complemented by a series of radial suburban lines, some of which will soon be part of the "Elizabeth Line" (Crossrail). In addition, there is the driverless "Docklands Light Railway" as well as a tram system that serves Croydon in South London. In this book, London-based author Andrew Phipps presents every means of urban rail transport, giving an overview of the respective history of each system and the vehicles used. At the end of the book, the reader will find detailed maps in the form of an atlas of the entire Greater London area, which is home to some nine million people.
