One More Glimpse: Steam in the British Landscape Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Main line steam officially ended on British Railways in 1968.

Fortunately, steam has continued on preserved railways and even on the modern main line, and the essence of everyday steam working can still be captured.

Here, father and son team Robin and Taliesin Coombes document their search for one more glimpse of the magic of steam power on the rails of Great Britain. This evocative collection of more than 120 photographs show both the romance and practicality of steam power.

Documenting everything from express passenger trains storming up Ais Gill to the locomotives of quiet rural branch lines and working steam sheds, this book is sure to delight anyone who enjoys the sight of a classic locomotive at work.
