Description

The Class 40 Locomotives With the Class 40 Preservation Society This collection of images offers a fascinating survey of one of the iconic locomotives of twentieth-century Britain: the Class 40. Commonly seen in Scotland and the north of England in the latter half of the century, the Class 40 continues to capture the imagination of railway enthusiasts everywhere. The photographs in this book were taken by the late Keith Holt, who developed an interest in railways as a youngster. His photographs, including many of the iconic Class 40 locomotives, are featured in this book, which serves as a fitting tribute to his lifelong interest in the railways. The Class 40 was a versatile locomotive, used to haul both heavy freight and passenger trains, and this book captures a locomotive at the peak of its powers.
