Railways in the First World War, Volume 1
2026

Railways in World War I, Volume 1 is the first volume published by Routledge from the 2018 conference held by the International Railway History Association (IRHA), which examined the relationship between railways and World War I from a theoretical, methodological, and global geographical perspective.
The case of Spain is covered in Chapter 13 by Miguel Muñoz Rubio and Pedro Pablo Ortúñez Goicolea, titled “Regulating in Wartime: An Impossible Mission — Railways in Spain (1913–1919).”

This collection of essays brings together experts in the field, drawn from a wide range of disciplines and professional backgrounds, to demonstrate how this topic is essential to understanding developments in European and world history during the 1910s and 1920s.

Railroads in World War I will be a useful resource for students, scholars, and general readers interested in the history of transportation, the history of World War I, and world history.
