WESTERN RUNDOWN!
ARCHIVE SPECIAL NO. 1
Western Rundown is the first of our Archive Specials and deals in detail with how British Rail plotted the downfall of the Western Class 52s. From the 1965 report which condemned them as non-standard, the author follows the story of the end of the Westerns via official correspondence and archive material as well as some rare photographs. You can follow the fluctuating fortunes of the Class 52s as BR changed and chopped their minds, understand the reasoning behind the withdrawals of many of the fleet, and marvel at the way the locomotives clung on until 1977. It's all here in a super archive special that will be a major reference work for years to come. Another superb booklet from Dartwest, 32 pages of stunning information and pics, £10 including P&P. This is a limited edition work and once sold out will be consigned to history. Simply order below by clicking on the button and allow 28 days for delivery.
