Soft cover. Condizione: New. 1st Edition. In 2008 Terry Cole produced his first color album featuring the branch and secondary lines of Sussex and Hampshire. Now he continues the theme by adding to the Southern Way Special issue series with a volume outlining the sixties. Cole draws upon a further selection of previously unseen color images depicting the railway as it used to be back in a time that some of us remember and others can only imagine. Steam-hauled branch line passenger trains, local goods trains, and the early diesel units-all scenes we took for granted, but now, like the routes themselves, long consigned to history. Cole integrates quality descriptions with a variety of color images to present this fascinating and enchanting look back into sixties. Size: 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. Book.…

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Picture Boards. 1st Edition. Pat Avery has sourced a previously unpublished collection to present a wonderful tribute to that period now nearly half a century ago, and at the time shunned by the contemporary enthusiast who still preferred to chase steam. Grouped into 'regions' and their respective lines emanating from the London termini, most of the pioneer diesel classes are shown. Not in later BR blue, but instead in green, maroon, ochre, the first short lived blue livery, as well as the colours worn by some of the rarer one-off machines. Detailed captions compliment the book; certain to find a home amongst the current day enthusiast who yearns for the nostalgia of their childhood. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Book.…

From the publisher: "As with many other counties, the railway network of Hampshire has diminished to a shadow of its former size over the last two generations. It was not simply the effects of the famous Beeching report that rendered the various routes extinct, but also the actions of the operators themselves. They had already begun to take measures to reduce the number of lines operating, with closures taking place in almost every decade from the 1910s through to the 1970s. As a result of these changes, Hampshire now boasts an impressive network of closed lines, most of which are covered within this book, with stunning vistas capturing their final days as moribund railways. This new album takes readers on a lovely journey back to a time within living memory when the last vestiges of a larger network were still in existence. Compiled by well-known railway historian Jeffery Grayer, this book will be essential reading for all enthusiasts.". First Printing of the First Edition. Softcover. Near Fine - As New condition.

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Picture Boards. 1st Edition. For the first time the story of Fury is put in context with other similar experiments in the story of steam worldwide; nearer to home, the story commences with the strengths and weaknesses of the new Royal Scot design the development of and trials with the high-pressure boiler, and the continuation of these trails after the fatal accident at Carstairs. Conceived as a genuine attempt at increasing the efficiency of the steam locomotive, the result may perhaps be described as an attempt too far, pushing technology beyond what was feasible at the time: although such was not known back then. Retired engineer Ian Carney has spent many years fascinated by this one particular engine, gathering in the process much hitherto unpublished information which will throw a totally new light on what has been published in the past. This engrossing new title includes a variety of illustrations, many of which are previously unseen and are accompanied by plans and diagrams. This new story of steam experimentation will appeal to both the enthusiast and historian Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Book.…

The Photos from the Fifties collection features new locomotives and rolling stock intermingled with the products of yesteryear, the latter often relegated to secondary or special workings. This is a wonderful variety of images of the Southern Region in the days before the words "corporate and bland" became appropriate to describe a railway operation that is certainly more clean, efficient, and reliable than it used to be, but lacks the fascination that it once provided in full measure. Witness the special workings, but also the regular freight and passenger traffic that could provide surprises of its own; the author recalls a typical week in the 1950s when his regular morning train to Waterloo was hauled by a different class of locomotive every day of that week. A time when life was perhaps taken at a slightly slower pace and there was the time to stand and stare. Ref NNN 2.…

The name of George Heiron will be familiar to many enthusiasts, both as a railway photographer of undoubted repute and likewise a painter of similar skill. Some of George's work has indeed been seen before, but this has mainly been his Western Region coverage together, with a few views of the Southern line near Ilfracombe. Some of the views seen can only be described as stunning. A record taken by a photographer with an eye for detail, portraying not just the locomotive and train, but the surroundings and everyday scene. 'George Heiron's Southern Collection' is a book to savour. One to relish at a leisurely pace and a fitting companion to 'The Southern Railway Victoria Station A Unique Perspective'. Ref K 6.…
