Description
Railway sleuth Les Summers unravels the politics and policies that led to the abandonment of steam traction under British Railways. In this fascinating account he examines the twilight of steam in the era that shaped the future of our railways.
British Railways Steam is the follow on to Swindon Steam. This time the much-respected railway historian Les Summers focusses his attention on the BR locomotives during steam’s all too brief twilight era between 1948 and 1970. He investigates the facts behind the myths using the latest research into the often overlooked postwar scene, examining the effects of nationalization including the political agenda and policies that shaped the railways. A fascinating account of a formative time in railway history.
