The Modernisation Plan brought about the end of standard gauge main line steam operation in the UK in 1968. After that date, many British enthusiasts turned their interest to the still considerable number of countries across the world where steam traction could still be found. Railway photographer Keith Strickland has put together this collection of his photographs from trips to mainland Europe and the rest of the world between the 1970s and the present day.

The first chapter covers Austria, Germany (both East and West) and Poland, followed by the rest of Europe with some shots from UK narrow gauge railways included along with countries such as Slovakia and Switzerland. Other countries featured include South Africa, Zimbabwe, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, India, China, Cuba and New Zealand.

Approximately 90 colour and 40 black & white photographs., each accompanied by basic captions. 96 pages.
