D1006 Western Stalwart
OUT DEC 2020: Another volume in the already acclaimed Western Chronicles series detailing every member of the 74-strong class 52 diesel-hydraulic locomotives in their own individual publication. D1006 Western Stalwart covers some interesting aspects by taking a fresh look at its life. The book covers, the controversial ship style windscreen wiper which was deemed a failure by the powers that be plus takes another look at the engine fire which left the locomotive requiring a visit to Swindon Works. Then there is the Laira repaint with NEW previously unpublished photographs of the locomotive in service without double arrow emblems for a while. Totalling 59 pages of colour and black and white pictures plus archive material make this another must have book for the real Western enthusiast. It also includes an important Rhapsody in Blue update! It is just £16.99 with POST AND PACKAGING INCLUDED!
