  • Waterstones Steam in the East Midlands and Lincolnshire

    Price: £25.00

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: The photographs in this volume of Steam in the East Midlands and Lincolnshire cover an area beginning at Derby Headquarters of the Midland following the Midland line to Nottingham and its environs, pausing at locations en-route. Trent, in the south-east corner of Derbyshire, was a station without a town, its position and importance as an interchange junction for five main railway routes, through the plethora of junctions, served London, Birmingham, Derby, Chesterfield and Nottingham. Remarkably enough, trains could depart from opposite platforms, in opposite directions but to the same destination. There was also the constant procession of coal trains off the Erewash Valley line from the nearby Toton marshalling yard. Also featured is the Derby Friargate to Nottingham Victoria, the Great Northern Railway line, and the former Great Central route, along with scenes at Saxby where the Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway, mainly single track line diverged, running via Bourne to East Coast resorts. Finally, there are scenes at Grantham, where changing engines in 1954 was the order of the day. Locomotives are photographed at work, at rest and awaiting a call for scrap.

  • Waterstones British Trolleybus Systems - Wales, Midlands and East Anglia

    Price: £30.00

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: Although there had been experiments with the use of a new form of transport - the trackless tram' (better known as the trolleybus) - during the first decade of the 20th century, it was in June 1911 that Bradford and Leeds became the country's pioneering operators of trolleybuses. There had been earlier experimental users - in places like Hove and London - and as the tide turned against the tram in many towns and cities, the trolleybus became a popular alternative with the trolleybus comping to dominate the provision of local public transport in places like Derby and Ipswich. This volume - one of four that examines the history of all trolleybus operators in the British Isles - focuses on the systems that operated in Wales, the Midlands and East Anglia.

  • Waterstones The Last Years of Steam Around the East Midlands

    Price: £20.00

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: ' The Last Years of Steam Around the East Midlands' covers most of the railways across the county and the locomotives that worked over them. In the main, the time period covers the ten years or so from the late 1950s up to the end of steam working in the East Midlands. In addition to steam locomotives, their diesel replacements will also be shown. A number of industrial locations will also be visited, and in particular, the book explores the now-closed Ironstone Railways of the East Midlands. The photographs, a mixture of colour and black and white, come mostly from those taken by the author and his late father, with the balance coming from his father's old friends. Most of the photographs have never been published, with all images accompanied by an extensive and informative commentary.

  • Waterstones East Midlands Traction

    Price: £15.99

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: The East Midlands is rich in railway history and heritage. The Midland and Great Northern Railway companies laid much of the foundations, building extensively across the region to link its important centres of population and to tap into the significant coal reserves of Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire. Although much depleted in the wake of branch line and colliery closures, the area still boasts two intensively used main lines, the important North East- South West route, threading its way through the Midland Railway's capital at Derby, and many other secondary passenger and freight-only lines, all offering great possibilities for railway photography. This pictorial collection presents a wide-ranging selection of images of East Midlands traction from the late 1970s to the present day, photographed and compiled by Andrew Walker. Focusing on the counties of Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and Leicestershire, the book features over a dozen different diesel locomotive types on both passenger and freight operations, together with multiple units, HS Ts and the later generation of Sprinters. Many of the images feature locomotives and railway infrastructure now confined to history and in almost 200 pictures the diversity of rail traffic in this important English region is amply illustrated.

  • Waterstones Barmy Derby

    Price: £9.99

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: Barmy Derby will make Rams fans chortle away, and frequently state: “well, I never knew that!” A blend of fact and fun, the book offers a multitude of conventional statistics and stories, but which appear alongside different views on the club that you won’t have seen before. Guaranteed! The main core of the book is a chronology of Derby County’s 134-year history. The ebb and flow of each season is built up, step-by-step, via succinct, one-sentence facts alongside exact dates, thus allowing the reader to feel the ecstasy and the agony (mainly the agony) of their counterpart fans, back in the day. Within the chronology though, seasons and decades are punctuated with a host of quirky facts, strange events, bizarre coincidences and striking statistics, while “ Perspective” snippets demonstrate that football is just a game, but life is a whole lot tougher. However, if it’s plain “barmy” that you want, then check out the Barmy Yarny, a short piece of fiction about Derby County that is sure to have you laughing out loud, while the story is accompanied by conventional and quirky facts relating to the 154 Rams players who appear in the yarn! So if you’re up for it, go ahead, prime the Ramometer and take your seat at Pride Park. Or given the offbeat nature of parts of this book, perhaps you’d prefer an away trip. perhaps to St Flanneldrews, The Guffawthorns or The Stadium of Tripe.

    Description: Great photography of locomotives on the East Midlands railways in the final years of steam traction compiled with thoroughly researched, informative captions, beautifully produced in hardback with rare and previously unseen images in colour and black and white. Composed of just over 6,000 square miles of land, the East Midlands enjoyed a diverse system of railways in the days of steam. These routes ranged from the main lines connecting the north and south of Britain to small branches, as well as cross-country and local lines. East Midlands Steam, 1950-1966, presents the twilight years of steam traction in the area with nearly 200 superb colour and black-and-white images. The book covers Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Northamptonshire, Nottinghamshire and Rutland. In addition to the cities that appear - Derby, Leicester, Lincoln, and Nottingham - a number of large towns are included, such as Chesterfield, Grantham, Kettering, Loughborough, Mansfield, Northampton and Wellingborough, etc. With lines formerly operated by the London, Midland & Scottish Railway and London & North Eastern Railway, many locomotives of these companies are present, alongside the Standard Classes of British Railways With a rich industrial heritage in the region, a number of privately owned locomotives appear at work on several sites, such as collieries, quarries and power stations. The East Midlands was a busy and exciting place for steam enthusiasts to observe and record locomotives at work. In doing so, a wonderful era of British history has been captured. This collection has been assembled to celebrate those distant days. Waterstones East Midlands Steam 1950 - 1966 - shop the best deal online on thebookbug.co.uk
