Depot and Workshop Rail Scene

For well over two decades Rail Blue was the dominant colour and livery choice over the entire BR network, from plain blue to large logo, together with a multitude of livery variations in between. With images predominantly from the 1980s, although the 1970s and early 1990s are also represented, this book features more than eighty locations of former BR depots, stabling points and locomotive workshops within the Rail Blue era. While today some of the depots are still operating, many of the images included are of locations now lost forever, along with the locomotives, DMUs and EMUs that were to be found there.With a wide variety of locations in Scotland, England and Wales covered, Garry Stroud’s vibrant selection of images offers readers a nostalgic insight into a period of BR history before the onset of the multi-coloured liveries seen today.
