Product Information

In recent years, Ian Allan Publishing has had considerable success in reprinting 'classic; volumes from its railway 'abc' series of the 1950s and 1960s. During these decades, these were several hundreds of thousand of railway enthusiasts who travelled widely recording what they had 'spotted' in their notebooks and then transferring this information carefully into these 'abc' volumes. As a source of nostaigia and of information, these books are fascinating, providing as they do a snapshot of the railway industry from the year they were first published. In the spring of 2004. Ian Allan Publishing released its latest reprint of a 'Combined' volume in the guise of that covering 1960; now, as a companion to the earlier book, the company is reprinting the locoshed book that was published the same year. The book provides the reader with a locomotive-by-locomotive guide as to actual shed allocations, thereby making it an essential reference for all those who are modelling the BR scene of the period. For this reprint, the publishers have inserted a short pictorial section featuring some of the locomotives recorded within the book's pages. As an exercise in pure nostalgia, the reprints of these classic 'abc' volumes can have no equal for a large number of enthusiasts and former enthusiasts who grew up in the years immediately after Nationalisation. This volume will be quickly acquired by all those who recall the era or who require detailed information for railway modelling purposes.
