Following from Volume One, this second treatise on the history of the GWR in the Stroud Valley chronicles the important developments of the post-broad gauge period – the signalling, the addition of Chalford station, the early railmotor services, the GWR motor bus services, the disappointments of trying to build a railway to Painswick, and the emergence of Kemble from a basic changing-point for Cirencester to fully-fledged junction station.
