On Sunday I was given a copy of this book.

I've gone on record before as saying that I find the very end of steam in '68 a fascinating time, with the magnificent scruffiness of steam tinged with the sadness that its end was known. Though this is only a slim volume, more of a booklet really, it's still a fabulous thing to have. here's a quick sample of what lies inside the cover.

If decay, decline and the end of an era appeals, then I'd recommend you get hold of a copy.
