About this title

Synopsis

Fascinating and detailed examination of William Stanier's 4-6-0 steam locomotives that he designed for the LMS -- the express passenger Jubilees intended for service unsuited for the larger Royal Scots or Pacifics and the mixed traffic Class 5s (and their direct descendent, the British Railway standard Class 5). Based on thorough new research, the authors describe the the development of all three classes and discuss their records and performance (shown on numerous charts). They evaluate the many detailed variations and experiments that were carried out on individual engines to make their good performance even better. Over 800 of these engines were built and almost 20 still remain in service on private tourist railways. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos and detailed schematic diagrams. With rosters and lists of named locomotives. 96 pages with index.

Store Description

Our base is near Billingshurst, West Sussex UK. We have been book collecting for 30 years. Our books are stored at the appropriate steady temperature and humidity. We offer rare and out of print books primarily to collectors. We normally describe the condition of boards and spines separately and in addition to contents. For magazines and leaflets we use the book description box to describe the CONTENTS and the jacket box to describe the covers. To assist collectors we try and offer magazines individually (subject to a minimum order value of �10 + P&P). For a number of the more valuable books photographs are avaialable on our website. Some have multiple images and there are both small and large images available. Either click "ask bookseller a question" or e mail us direct to access the picture gallery. For queries made through our BiancoLibrary website we can provide images "scanned to e-mail" for books vlaued at over 20 pounds or so. Please bear in mind that these scans cover boards and plates etc but cannot always accommodate spines. In some cases we can also fax black and white copies. We ask customers not to abuse this service.
