Passenger Trains in the North of England features over 270 black and white pictures and takes the reader northbound from South Yorkshire and Cheshire to the Scottish Borders. Also covered in detail are a wide selection of pictures from Cumbria, West and North Yorkshire among others. We see main line expresses, branch line and local trains, plus special workings running along today’s railways and lines that have faded into history. Steam, diesel and electric powered trains are pictured right across the North of England including industrial and city views plus a great selection taking in the highly picturesque locations of the northern hills and Dales. Embracing a period of 65 years the book features images from as early as 1957 right through the late steam era up to the present day. The stars of the book are obviously the trains of the past, but just as important are the top photographers who have kindly provided these high-quality pictures for your enjoyment. While the author has sneaked a few of his own efforts in, the main contributions come from the great names of the railway photography world including Gavin Morrison, Les Nixon, Peter Fitton, John Whiteley, John Cooper Smith and others.
Presents a complete list of streamliner trains from 1933 to 1942. Includes early experiments in the evolution of semi-streamlining, the pioneers, the middle years, the zenith and decline, the conversions and more--the entire story.
This much-anticipated book documents the inter-city passenger train operations, history, and equipment of northern New England, including the Boston & Maine, Maine Central, Bangor & Aroostook, Central Vermont, and Grand Trunk railroads. Over 200 black-and-white and color illustrations, along with equipment diagrams, maps, and timetables, help to bring the story of this vibrant era alive. A wonderful volume for those interested in railroad history and modeling.
