The Last Ten Years is a collection of photographs highlighting steam traction during the years 1959 to 1968, brought together from the collections of three enthusiasts who were members of the Seafield Railway Club in north London. Meeting regularly at New Southgate station to record the steam handled traffic, their focus was initially on all things connected with the former London and North Eastern Railway, but as steam traction became restricted to smaller and smaller areas of operation regular visits were made to the north-east of England, Scotland and the former London Midland and Scottish Railway sheds and lines in Lancashire to record steam in its final moments. With over 200 photographs, this full-colour book will enhance any steam railway enthusiast's library. AUTHOR: Brian J. Dickson worked in the publishing and printing industries for over 35 years before retiring in 2000. He is now an active volunteer locomotive fireman and driver at a heritage railway. He has written a number of railway books and lives in Buckinghamshire. This latest book collates the work of three skilled photographers, in vivid colour and unparalleled quality: Anthony Scarsbrook, Andrew Grant Forsyth, and Hugh Donald Ramsay. 170 colour illustrations
