A book featuring a specific railway location is always best compiled by an individual with local knowledge and that is what Manchester resident John Glover has compiled in this book.
John knew the railways around Manchester intimately at the time of transition from steam to diesel and electric and has used that knowledge to best effect in this book. Manchester had been in the forefront of electrification and also saw a wide range of steam and diesel locomotives.
This book contains a series of black & white photographs taken around Manchester between the 1950s and late 1960s, each accompanied by a caption. 112 pages.
