Produktinformationen zu „British Industrial Steam Locomotives (ePub)“
A pictorial history of the many producers of industrial steam locomotives in Great Britain, from the early nineteenth century to the mid-twentieth century.
The first steam locomotives used on any British railway worked in industry.
The use of new and second hand former main line locomotives was once a widespread aspect of the railways of Britain.
This volume covers many of the once numerous manufacturers who constructed steam locomotives for industry and contractors from the nineteenth to the mid-twentieth centuries.
David Mather has spent many years researching and collecting photographs across Britain, of most of the different locomotive types that once worked in industry.
This book is designed to be both a record of these various manufacturers and a useful guide to those researching and modelling industrial steam.
Praise for British Industrial Steam Locomotives
"A good introduction, hopefully it will encourage some of those who have only been involved during the preservation period to take a wider interest in the historical aspects of the subject." -Industrial Locomotive Society

The Railways of York was shortlisted for the Ian Allan railway book of the year award, Ian Allan writing the foreward for the authors first book, Running Out of Steam.
