The Great Western's Last Year by Adrian Vaughan

DESPITE being one of the best-known and admired rail companies in the country, by 1947 the GWR was at the lowest ebb of its entire history.
ADRIAN VAUGHAN began to learn about the railway in 1946 at only 6 years old, riding the engines and asking questions. He started learning signal-box work in 1950 and was coached in engine driving, hands-on, in 1953–54. After leaving the army, he joined British Railways (WR) as a lad porter (one was not deemed adult until the age of 21). A signalman from 1961 to 1975, he began writing about the railway in 1970 and has now published over thirty books on the subject. He lives in Norfolk.
