Lost Joy of Railways by Julian Holland
Takes you back to the 1950s and 60s, reminding you not just of the trains but of personal accounts, journey logs, timetables and photographs. Divided into six regions of British railways, this book documents the favourite sections and engine sheds. It also includes records of trainspotting trips and the final days of steam.
Julian Holland has always had a passion for British railways and has documented his many journeys around Britain during the final years of steam. He has worked in the publishing industry for the last 39 years, coupling his work with his passion on many occasions, for titles such as Along Lost Lines, Tickets Please! and Amazing and Extraordinary Railway Facts.|Author and photographer Julian Holland spent his formative years, notebook and camera in hand, trainspotting on draughty stations and in grimy engine sheds and travelling the highways and byways of the British Railways network in search of that elusive locomotive number. In his more recent years he has written many best selling books on railways including The Lost Joy of Railways, Amazing & Extraordinary Railway Facts, and Memories of Steam.
