The success of the first volume released eight years ago in hardback form with a print run of 3000 copies released at the Eastleigh Works Open Day which quickly sold out has led us to prepare two further volumes with print runs of just 1000 copies each.

 

Once again we have raided the colour archives from the 1950s and 1960s to provide a truly delicious selection of colour photographs to depict this much hankered for era of our railway's history.

 

Along with a fine collection of Bulleids in both their original and rebuilt forms, we present other express designs from Maunsell, Urie and Billington along with a supporting cast drawn from a wide breadth of designs from the pre-grouping era through to the Standard classes, along with a few surprise visitors on specials.

 

Each of these two volumes contains a real treasure trove of images that will bring both enjoyment and inspiration to modellers and enthusiasts alike. The colour photographs are all supported by detailed captions with great care and attention to how they are presented on the pages, all within our established large format hardback landscape designs, to accompany other volumes in this series already released covering the other regions.

 

Each volumes is 160 pages, printed on high quality art paper with approximately 156 photographs in each title, casebound hardback.

 

Full details may be found on our website or within our complimentary catalogue included within the subscribers copies of the next two issues of British Railway's Modelling Magazine.

Sales of this pair are almost keeping pace with the two Seventies Diesel & Electric Days Remembered books released at the same time, just a fortnight ago.

 

Thanks for the kind comments from those who have expressed themselves so far via emails and the telephone, most encouraging, thank you.

Just like the two Seventies Diesel & Electric Days Remembered titles this Southern pairing have now reached the half way point in sales after just five weeks in the market place, fingers crossed we printed enough copies in the end.

With sales going well on both Southern Steam Days Remembered volumes and all the positive feedback from those who already have secured their copies, thanks very much by the way, I have begun work on Volume IV for some time next year.
