The LSWR at Nine Elms - The Works and its Products
1839-1909
by Barry Curl
For many years the former glass
plate collection of LSWR negatives from Nine Elms works has lain
dormant. Now Barry Curl has catalogued the photographs and records
of the period to produce a stunning archive of the LSWR, most of which has
never been published before.
Bathe in the quality of what are
some of the most amazing scenes of any railway from the period. Also
included is a complete record of the history of the works and its products over
the years. Some engines are depicted under construction, some brand new
and others at work on the system.
“Its 360 pages and 436 photographs and diagrams represent
exceptional value for money.” South Western Circular
“A thoroughly excellent volume, with far wider appeal than
purely to LSWR devotees, and is well worth the cover price.” Backtrack
