About this product

Product Information

In 1838 Thomas Edmondson, an employee of the fledgling Newcastle & Carlisle Railway, revolutionized the ticket issuing process in Britain and left an enduring legacy: the Edmondson ticket. Purchased as proof of the contract between passenger and railway company, the ticket was a receipt, travel pass and an ephemeral record of almost every train journey ever taken in the British Isles, reflecting the nostalgia of the railways and a period of history when the movement of millions of people brought together England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The railways printed millions of tickets for every conceivable journey and category of passenger. Most were destroyed after use, but remarkably many survive, in the care of libraries, museums and collectors, and form the basis of a fascinating hobby.

    While the movie took sometime to arrive it did arrive safely and for free postage from overseas. The dvd was well packaged and in very good condition just as described by the sender. Communication with the seller was excellent and response to a recent communication over this items non arrival was very fast (note the movie arrived the next day). I would have no hesitation in using this seller again.

    The item arrived, safe and sound, on 18th June. All aspects of the transaction trouble-free; very fair price; accurate description of the book; care in packaging to prevent damage to the book in transit (to me, the most important aspect of the transaction); delivery in seventeen days from the date of order: excellent. Many thanks to the seller.
