Regular price £6.00 Unit price per

More than 340 2-6-0s were constructed over nearly 40 years to the designs of Sir Nigel Gresley, Edward Thompson and Arthur Peppercorn. Designed for mixed traffic, the 2-6-0s were amongst the great unsung heroes of railway services concentrated in northeast England and Scotland and could be found on a wide range of duties, from mundane freight to semi-fast passenger trains. In Working Steam: LNER 2-6-0s, the collections of many of the most notable railway photographers in the country have been drawn upon to produce a pictorial tribute to the stylish 2-6-0 designs of the , GNR and LNER. Incorporating some 85 colour photographs, along with an introductory essay and detailed captions, the book is a graphic reminder of the great variety of work undertaken by these locomotives during their long and illustrious careers.
