Includes track plans and photographs of re-signalling work in progress.92 pages (8 x 10 in.), 165 images (>80% colour) with detailed photograph captions and diagrams throughout. Two digital download and three print formats available, starting from £11.99. Printed books are bound on demand and are not available in bookshops.
