D1071 Western Renown

£16.99

THIS TITLE WILL BE PUBLISHED IN 2021: One of the vent-fitted Western Class 52s, D1071’s life was eventful to say the least. On top of the experimental air vent for the driving cabs, the locomotive was also involved in a major accident at St. Annes Park, Bristol in January 1967. On top of that she ended her life by failing at Taunton in dramatic circumstances with a cardan shaft adrift. The engine lasted right until December 1976 and was one of the last of the class to receive a works overhaul at Swindon, being outshopped in August 1972. Full of colour and black and white photographs and 60 pages plus at A5 size, together with dust jacket, D1071 is the latest publication off the growing production line in the Western Chronicle series. Printed on glossy paper and retailing at £16.99 including FREE post and packing, D1071 is a valuable addition to the collection.
