Summary
For the Love of Trains: A Bicentennial Celebration
Coincides with the 200th anniversary of the modern railway - with a foreword by Pete Waterman
“As a railwayman’s son I am chuffed to write a book in celebration of trains for the bicentenary year of the world’s first public railway. Covering every aspect from the Victorian railway mania, the heyday and end of steam, the railway at war and my boyhood passion of trainspotting, to the triumph and debacle of HS1 and HS2.”
