Thank you eGJ Jumblygran and Lillian40 for your suggestions from months back !
Have any of you read the Railway Mysteries by Edward Marston ? I realise they may be a light read but that’s what I want sometimes.
Yes I may try reading the Moonstone again I loved it when I read it 50 odd years ago.
NanKate I thought the Edward Marston books were alright,
But a better author ( same subject and time) is Andrew Martin.
All his books ( I have them all) bar his very first novel, are well written and capture the time and place perfectly.
Not all set on English railways, in fact his best one is set in France during the Great War, and another in Iraq also India.
Starting in late Victorian times and going up to the 1920’s.
