Praise for British Steam Locomotives Before Preservation

"The book does exactly what it says on the cover and is recommended for anyone with an interest in UK standard-gauge steam. The photographs include not only locomotives, but also trains in some very interesting settings, which adds to the enjoyment of a well-researched offering. Recommended-Next one please!" -Ffestiniog Railway Magazine
