Railway Memories by Robert Anderson

Using quality photographs - all but one of which never been published before - Robert Anderson recalls the days of mainline steam in the old West Riding of Yorkshire between 1955, when the steam locomotive still reigned supreme, to 1969, when the Flying Scotsman was the only steam engine allowed to run on the whole of the British Rail network. Laid out in the form of a pictorial diary, "Railway Memories, No. 16" features no less than 78 different classes of steam locomotive in an area stretching from Sheffield in the south to Harrogate and the Settle & Carlisle line in the north, from Goole in the east to Todmorden in the west, and includes steam around such centres as Leeds, Bradford, Skipton, Huddersfield, Halifax, Wakefield, Doncaster, Selby, Barnsley, Rotherham and Sheffield.
