This photographic volume looks at the relatively new London Overground system, its origins and changes since its inception in 2007. The book is arranged into chapters covering each Overground route. Well reproduced photographs accompany a brief summary of each route’s history. As expected Class 378 units dominate the photos at a variety of locations on each of the Overground lines. As well as Class 378, the photos also feature LUL 1972 and S7 Stock, as well as LO Classes 172, 313, 315, 317, 350, 375, 390, 455, 456 and the newest units to appear, the Class 710s. An interesting facet is that some of the routes feature freight traffic, with Classes 37, 66, 86, 90 appearing in the photos. Photos of the infrastructure also feature throughout the book. This is a well laid out general overview of this interesting system. Recommended for those interested in the more recent London urban rail scene.

There has been for some time a need for a comprehensive history of the North Wales line, and a very significant one has arrived on the market. Author Philip Lloyd describes his book The Chester and Holyhead Railway; a New History as 'the culmination of a lifetime's interest in the line', and this is evident throughout its 276 pages. This is a modern book, hardback on quality paper with many photographs, in colour when possible, including some by names well-known to our readers such as Dave Sallery and the late John Hobbs. The result of much research, this is a very readable history book, centred on people and events, without the technical details of locomotives or performance logs favoured by some other authors.

It is a great book written by Peter Johnson, an expert on narrow gauge railways and the author of several books on the subject such as "Festiniog Railway" or "The Vale of Rheidol Railway", also by the same publisher. It contains all the necessary information and many photographs about this picturesque tourist railway.
