Description

Many thousands of words have been written about the locomotives of the M&GN but until now the equally important and even more fascinating story of the railway’s rolling stock has been virtually ignored. The authors found this an intolerable situation and have undertaken this exhaustive research into the origins, development and ultimate fate of the passenger and goods stock of the line – from official documents, Diagram Books, first-hand accounts from the railwaymen involved and personal fieldwork on the surviving vehicles themselves – to tell this complicated story in as simple, logical and accessible a way as possible. It is illustrated with over 300 photographs and drawings of everything the interested enthusiast or dedicated modeller would want to know.

Nigel Digby, John Hobden and John Watling
