Description
Experience the final years of steam locomotives in the North of England through this photographic survey.
From around 1959/60 to the end of steam in 1968, John Whiteley captures the region's last days of steam, including the Peak District, Yorkshire, Lancashire and Cumbria up to the Scottish border. The book also features images of GWR locomotives around Chester and steam in Manchester.
For those interested in the history of railways in this region, this photographic survey offers a unique insight into the decline of steam traction on British Railways in the North of England.
