"Publishers like to speak of their products being lavishly illustrated, and for once that much-overused phrase is entirely appropriateThis really is a gorgeous production, with its large format, glossy paper and mote than 350 well printed photographs, many of them in colour." Anthony Burton, writing in Countryfile magazine "The demand for coffee table type books depicting the steam age in all its grime and glory appears to be insatiable, and Julian Holland has perfected the art of satisfying this demand." Heritage Railway magazine "Period photos are so evocative you call all but hear engines powering along the tracks."
