Awdry's Steam Railways - Christopher Awdry - 1995 - Boxtree - 159, crisp, bright full-colour photographs - Hardcover and dustcover in very good condition - Internally clean and tightly bound.
Awdry's Steam Railways is a glorious celebration of steam on ten preserved British steam railways. Chris Awdry, well-known as the son of Thomas the Tank Engine author the Reverend W. Awdry, takes the reader on a fascinating trip along each line and on the way discovers its history, the people who work and travel on it, and the places that the line passes through.
From Buckfastleigh to Bo'ness, and from Devil's Bridge to Sheringham, Awsdry's Steam Railways tells of the back-breaking work carried out by railway preservationists to rebuild these lines. Railways closed during the Beeching era have now risen from weed-choked trackbeds; steam engines transformed from rusty hulks to gleaming machines; derelict buildings rebuilt to their former glory. Mainly run by dedicated volunteers, these lines will delight all who are attracted to steam in motion and who value the survival of Britain's rich railway tradition.
This book is not only for steam and railway enthusaists but also for those who enjoy discovering more about Britain's railway heritahe.
High quality cplour photographs and specially commissioned maps complete Chris Awdry's fascinating text.
