Engine Sheds in Camera presents a fascinating and wide-ranging record of engine sheds and motive power depots in Britain, mainly in the 1950s and '60s. Portraits of engine crews and shed workers, together with the images of the buildings and the locomotives on shed and at work, make up this evocative collection. The high quality black-and-white images, supported by well-researched and informative captions, are mainly from the author's collection and most have never been published previously. This album will bring back many memories to the thousands of enthusiasts who were, in their youth, drawn irresistibly to sheds throughout Britain to collect engine numbers and for the sight of some rare or possibly not-previously-seen locomotive. For those who are too young to remember the heyday of the steam locomotive, the book will be a glimpse of this essential and fascinating aspect of our industrial past.
