Released at last during the Doncaster Model Railway Show last weekend was Looking back at Class 47 Locomotives which had been delayed due to my health issues last year and then trying to get it bound which caused further delays. Limited to 1000 copies we have almost 500 pre-ordered which have now all gone off in the post and should be arriving very shortly with those who have already secured their copies.

Looking back at Class 47 Locomotives follows others in this series and is an all new 96 page colour photographic album taking a close look at these successful and long lived Type 4 locomotives from their introduction in 1962 through to the privatisation era. Inside we look at some of the variations through the years and many of the host of liveries and names the class have borne. A wide selection of locations and workings have been selected from a vast library of colour photographs, sure to appeal to the enthusiasts and modeller alike with informative captions.

96 pages full colour, HARDBACK £19.95
