Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Manchester and Glasgow Road, Vol. 2: This Way to Gretna Green; Manchester to Glasgow
London Road Railway Station nowadays marks the beginning of central Manchester. Hitherto the long, long approach, although busy and crowded, has been, if not a thought suburban, at least busy chie?y on the retail scale. Here, however, where the railway brings travellers in from London, you see Manchester as the great city of immense warehouses: the place that no longer manufactures but deals in bulk and by wholesale with the goods produced in a dependent circle of towns.
