Photographs cover a wide variety of train types, from express passenger trains to provincial freight. Photographs are of a high standard and are arranged in chapters, each covering a year between 1954 and 1965. Extensive captions accompany each photograph, providing some background detail about the locomotive, train and location.
Midland Archive Volume One is the first volume of images from the photographic archives of one of the period's best railway photographers. 112 pages.
