NEW FEBUARY 2023.  This is a 40-page card-covered book published in 1904 by William Clowes and Sons Ltd of London and Beccles. It was written by Thomas Waghorn, Barrister-at-Law, and bears the title 'The Effect of Railway Competition on Railway Dividends'. It comprises six closely-reasoned chapters with headings such as Diminution of Dividend and Competition of Fares & Rates.

It is easy to forget that among a wide selection of quite influential professional and middle-class citizens the main criterion for the running of a railway was not how it could better serve the travelling public or convey goods more effectively. Rather it was how can it maximise the dividend it pays? This book illustates that well.
