Synopsis

From Strathwood, 160 pages with 194 black and white photographs with the majority being one to the page and in large landscape format. A superb selection of images depicting the heyday of Scottish steam from the 1930s to the 1960s. While the majority of shots depict the favoured named locomotives from classes A4, A3, A2, A1, Duchesses, Britannias and Clans. We have a selection of shots of original P2s and other classes to delight the reader from Bill Rhind Brown. The night time photography of Dugald Cameron OBE is of the highest quality and will be appreciated by everyone. The locations selected for this volume include, Waverley, Aberdeen, St. Margarets, Glasgow Central, Queen Street, St. Enoch, Buchannan Street, Polmadie, St. Rollox, Ferryhill, Carlisle. There is a fascinating account of many of the most notable Scottish railway enthusiasts over the years in the introduction from Campbell Cornwell. A classic book on Scottish steam, not to be missed.
