The
LSWR at Nine Elms - The Works and its Products 1830-1909
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
