The Railways of Northern England in the 1960s invites the reader on a nostalgic tour of the North, from Crewe and Doncaster up to the Scottish border, taking in bustling metropolises, industrial towns, military sites, mountains, lakes, viaducts and picturesque villages. The photographs, a mixture of colour and monochrome, were taken between 1955 and 1970 and, with a few exceptions, are presented here for the very first time. Steam predominates, though diesel, electric power and even rope-worked inclines are featured, while among the locomotives you will find tramcars, an LNER paddle steamer and a four-wheeled oddity referred to as an ‘Old Steam Tar Sprayer’. This stunning collection, expertly restored and presented alongside informative commentaries, recalls the end of an era—a bygone age that, quite simply, is a joy to look back on.
