RMweb Premium 65179 Posted September 16, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 16, 2013 Just a quick post to note the new Woodhead book Scenes from the Past 29 (pt 4) Steam over Woodhead by E.M. Johnson. http://booklaw.co.uk/eshop/product_info.php?products_id=6021 I've just got hold of a copy and for my money it's an excellent follow up to the other 3 volumes in this series with plenty of interesting photos from GC days through to just prior to electrification covering London Rd to Hadfield plus the Fallowfield Loop.

Jim76 Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Sounds good. Have a couple of the other volumes. Am looking forward to making a purchase together with Woodhead - Countdown to Closure. Jim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poggy1165 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Just got my copy. Most of the pictures (unusually in this age) are of GC and LNER days and there are some absolute gems in there. Things that I honestly didn't think anyone had taken photos of. Covers the west side only, including the Fallowfield line, it appears there is at least one more volume to come. Highly recommended to anyone interested in pre-electric Woodhead. I am going back to have a more thorough study, but I've already identified a couple of very interesting PO wagons. And an absolutely perfect example of a tall GC signal with co-acting arms, that I want to model in 7mm scale. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
