British Industrial Steam Locomotives - A Pictorial Survey
This volume delves into the historical significance of steam locomotives employed in British industry. The widespread utilization of both new and repurposed former main line locomotives was a notable practice in the nation's railways.
Encompassing the 19th to the mid-20th centuries, the book extensively explores numerous manufacturers engaged in constructing steam locomotives for industrial and contractor purposes.
Through extensive research and a collection of photographs from across Britain, David Mather provides a comprehensive record of the diverse locomotive types that once served in industrial settings.
