Swindon Works: The Legend, Hardback Book

Swindon Works: The Legend Hardback

Hardback

Description

The age of steam is past, the heyday of Swindon Works is long gone - but the legend lives on.

What made the Great Western Railway's Swindon Works iconic?

Was it its worldwide reputation; perhaps its profound impact in shaping the new town of Swindon; or that it melded those who worked there into one big family?

In a new and exciting format, this book, by popular railway historian Rosa Matheson, helps explain why the never-ending love story endures.

With big facts and fascinating stories, it is a must read not only for ex-Works employees and their families, nor just for GWR fans and railway enthusiasts, but also for any newcomer seeking to find a good way into railway history.
