This short branch line, in the old county of Roxburghshire, is given the full in-depth Oakwood treatment, beginning with details of early railway development in the Scottish Borders before moving on to the construction and opening of the line, and chapters on the route, signalling and services. Three further chapters are entitled \"Branch diary\", covering from inauguration to Grouping, thence to Nationalisation, then to closure. Then the book looks at locomotives, accidents, excursions and special trains on the seven miles of this branch line that connected Jedburgh to Roxburgh Junction. The last two of the book's eighteen chapters deal with closure and the state of the line today.
