RMweb Gold Strathwood Posted March 28, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 28, 2019 STEAM'S LAMENT London Midland Region Engine Sheds I 1A to 7D Continuing in the same format as the acclaimed titles covering the British Railway's Standard locomotive fleet we turn our attention towards visiting all of the London Midland Region's engine sheds during the period 1948 to 1968. We have chosen the finest unpublished views possible to include as wide a range of locomotive classes on shed as we could find during the last ten years. The selections have been made on the basis of both high quality images but also they have been chosen to bring back the real life of visiting the sheds during the last twenty years of British Railways steam. Within this volume we visit 1A to 7D based upon the 1948 - 1950 shed codes: These engine sheds are all to be seen within: Willesden, Camden, Watford, Devons Road, Rugby, Nuneaton, Northampton, Coventry, Warwick, Market Harborough, Bescot, Bushbury, Walsall, Aston, Monument Lane, Bletchley, Aylesbury, Leighton Buzzard, Oxford Rewley Road, Wolverton Works (shed), Crewe North, Crewe South, Crewe Works (shed), Stafford, Stoke, Alsager, Uttoxeter, Chester, Mold Junction, Birkenhead, Chester Northgate, Wrexham Rhosddu, Bidston, Llandudno Junction, Bangor, Holyhead, Rhyl and Denbigh. Each volume is 128 pages with a superb selection of high quality black & white photographs depicting these locations as we remember them. The print runs are limited to just 1000 copies, therefore to avoid disappointment we advise you place your order straightaway. Future volumes will cover all of the regions in similar detail and will provide a wonderful record of the era. HARDBACK Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Strathwood Posted April 6, 2019 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted April 6, 2019 (edited) Just a heads up after a few folk gave me a hard time as they missed out on copies of Diesels & Electrics to the Scrapyards, and Looking back at Shunters I & II as these were also shorter run publications, suggesting I did not give fair warning. Well this is to let you know the six latest titles on LMR Engine Sheds and DMUs have already sold half their print runs in their first fourteen days. So there we are, this will be the case of shorter print runs on all future titles, speaking of which the Eastern & North Eastern Region's sheds will get the treatment next.

RMweb Gold Strathwood Posted October 8, 2019 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted October 8, 2019 A further heads up on all four volumes covering the London Midland Region Engine Sheds in that we are down below 250 copies of each left from the print run of 1000 copies of each. The Eastern & North Eastern Region volumes will go for printing in January 2020. Kevin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Strathwood Posted December 14, 2021 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted December 14, 2021 (edited) As many will realise the Eastern & North Eastern volumes were delayed due to the pandemic overtaking matters, however the first of the four volumes on London Midland Region Engine Sheds has now sold out, the other three volumes are not so far behind. https://strathwood.co.uk/products/steams-lament-london-midland-region-engine-sheds-ii-8a-to-12e-stocks-are-getting-low-be-quick?_pos=6&_psq=sheds&_ss=e&_v=1.0 https://strathwood.co.uk/products/steams-lament-london-midland-region-engine-sheds-iii-14a-to-19c?_pos=3&_psq=sheds&_ss=e&_v=1.0 https://strathwood.co.uk/products/steams-lament-london-midland-region-engine-sheds-iv-20a-to-28b?_pos=2&_psq=sheds&_ss=e&_v=1.0 Kevin Edited December 14, 2021 by Strathwood Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
