Product Information

Through an outstanding collection of colour images, this book traces the evolution of the British railway carriage, from the stage coaches on rails used at the dawn of the railway age, to the BR Mk1s of the 1950s and 60s. Each view is accompanied by an informative caption which will assist those coming to the subject for the first time, whilst adding new perspectives for the student of the subject. Vehicles representing around 40 different railway operators are featured in the book. These include BR, GWR, LMS, LNER, SR, NER, LNWR, LBSCR, London Transport, the GNRI and the Pullman Car Company. The products of more than 35 different works, including Swindon, Wolverton, York and Derby and a host of independent builders such as Brown Marshall, Metropolitan Cammell and Cravens, are featured. Further sections cover the evolution of steam and diesel railcars and electric multiple units. In addition, a wide variety of non-passenger carrying coaching stock which ran on passenger trains is included, such as bogie brakes, covered car trucks, utility vans, horse boxes and even milk tanks. A detailed glossary deals with the specialist terms used in conjunction with coaching stock. This is the first all colour book on a very colourful subject. It will appeal to a wide cross section of those interested in railways and there is much in its pages to stimulate railway modellers of all ages and abilities.
