The South Yorkshire town of Doncaster has long been a hotspot for railway enthusiasts. Glancing at the railway map, it’s easy to see why. With its prominent position on the East Coast Main Line, it is also an important passenger interchange for a variety of destinations around Yorkshire and Humberside. With no fewer than seven different passenger operators calling at the station, there’s plenty of variety. Doncaster’s freight traffic may have suffered as a result of the twenty-first-century downturn in coal movements, but there’s still a lot on show, with all the major rail-freight operators making regular appearances in the area.

In this book, John Jackson documents what Doncaster’s railways have to offer in the twenty-first century.
