This book, compiled by a group of Class 50 enthusiasts, charts the career of the Class 50 diesel locomotive in colour photographs.
It contains chapters looking at the types of work undertaken by Class 50s during their careers, before going on to look at their use under each sector of British Railways in the years before privatisation.
The withdrawal and scrapping of the fleet of locomotives is also covered, with theories about their early demise also discussed in the text. Photographs are all of a high standard and cover a wide range of locations. A4 size. 208 pages.
