This new publication is based on the daily diary that Thomas Baron kept for 6 years, which documents the locomotives that he worked upon and the places he travelled to.

The publication is illustrated by many photographs of the period and also by several superb paintings of the period from the renowned artist Gerald broom. Period maps are also used to supplement the information in the text.

134 pages paperback.
