Steamport Southport Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I would also recommend this book as it has loads of photographs not in those books, particularly of the infrastructure.

RMweb Gold Strathwood Posted March 13, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 13, 2019 We have four volumes covering all of the London Midland Region's engines sheds from 1948 to 1968 all being released on 20 March 2019. The volumes are 120 pages large format with generally one photograph to the page, based upon the 1948 to 1950 shed codes. Kevin 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Derek 19B Posted April 16, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 16, 2019 LMS engine sheds , line drawings of the buildings , track drawings and photos of locos in and around the shed. Or locos blocking a good view of the part of the shed you want to model. brilliant volumes with shed allocations. The Midland volume has pictures of for example a Johnson 2-4-0 leaving Derby round house and 9Fs at Wellingborough. Unbeatable for shed info ,have all 7 LMS volumes.

They do that, all the time. Photographers back in the day just couldn't get their priorities right. Sheds would have been a good deal cleaner and neater, without the engines, too.

RMweb Gold Not Jeremy Posted May 11, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 11, 2019 In the unlikely event that anyone wanted a copy of either Volume 1 or Volume 2 of these Wild Swan books, then I have a very few copies in stock, recently found in the warehouse. Happy to supply either at £25.00 each inc P&P, PM if interested. Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
