RMweb Gold Godfrey Glyn Posted June 8, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 8, 2019 Picked up a copy from Simon at the Titfield Thunderbolt whilst at the Warminster Show today. It is published by Crecy and is a series of photographs compiled by Kevin Robertson from the Roy E Vincent Archive at the Transport Treasury. I have to say that it is a real delight with masses of photographs from the period, offering loads of inspiration for anyone wanting to weather locos, stock and indeed infrastructure. Enjoy!

Godfrey Considering the cost of colour film at the time, compared to black and white, we are very lucky that some were able to record such scenes in colour. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's quite surprising just how many colour images there are out there, especially from the 1950s and 1960s. Pearls amongst colour albums are the three Lightmoor Gloucestershire books, with another three to come, plus the Michael Whitehouse 'Narrow Gauge Album'. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
