Fascinating and detailed study of the Southern Railway (UK) steam locomotives. In this authoritative text, O. S. Nock describes the histories and technical details of each group of locomotives from the years before the Grouping of the London, Brighton and South Coast with the London and South Western through the years of the Southern's existence until nationalization in 1947. Many familiar names will be found in this book: Stroudley, Stirling, Maunsell, and Bulleid among the designers; Jubilees, Scotchmen, Schools and King Arthurs among the locomotives. The author also relates personal experiences on many of the locomotives, having traveled both as a passenger and on the footplate, adding a wide variety of details. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos. With numerous charts and diagrams. 216 pages with index.
