Books you must have in your library
Although we provide a bibliography of the books and
magazines used in providing information and content, we are often asked as what
specific books would we recommend. The list we have put together reflects
personal opinion and is also limited by geography and time. Books in this
category must not only feature substantial local content but also focus
primarily on the county prior to 1968, the year steam ended on Britain's
mainline railway network. Books which may be considered excellent, both in
research and content, but only have a small section on the county would
therefore be excluded from this section but would listed in our
bibliography.
Such an example would be the three relevant volumes of LMS
sheds by Hawkins and Reeves (Volumes One - covering the LNWR sheds, Volume Two
- covering the Midland sheds and Volume Three covering the SMJ shed at
Stratford upon Avon. Other books which are unlikely to be listed in this
section are the before and after genre unless their pre-1968 content is
not available elsewhere. Many of the books may now be out of print but with the
advent of eBay and other online shops copies can still be found.
Thank you for visiting our pages. We would be very pleased
if you would add to the Guest Book we are
keeping!
