Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hard Cover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Colour & b/w Photographs (illustrator). New Full-Colour Edition. Dustjacket unclipped, very slight shelfwear to corners and edges. Blue cover with bright gold titles to spine. Very slight shelfwear to spine ends and bumped slightly to front bottom corner. No inscriptions, pages clean and tightly bound. This comprehensive guide-gazetteer shows you where and when to see steam in action. British Rail may have changed to diesel, but the enthusiasts who run Britain's `preserved' railways have started a new age of steam. The preservation societies - apart from often providing a real service to their area - give everyone a chance to experience the romance and excitement of steam. Almost 50 railways have been added to this new revised edition which now covers 175 railways, steam centres and museums, arranged area by area. A detailed description is given for 80 sites, including their history and full but non-technical details of stock and the line itself; a trip down the he and other attractions in the area are also described. The gazetteer gives, as applicable, for each site: full address, map reference, phone contact, detailed how-to-get-there instructions (including rail and bus connections), opening times, operating times (in outline), and details of parking, refreshments, etc. Every major entry includes a map showing the line and how to get to it. Endpaper maps are cross-referenced to the gazetteer and text. The Guide is lavishly illustrated throughout with top-quality colour and blackand-white photographs. Size: 7¾" - 9¾" Tall.
