Description

The Castle Class of 4-6-0 steam locomotives of the GWR were built between 1923 and 1950. They were designed by Chief Mechanical Engineer Charles Collett, primarily for working express passenger trains and had a top speed of 100mph. In this book, the author looks at these locos from their early days, working Class 1 trains into London, with images from around the region, nameplates, 'on shed', Royal train duty and much more. Black and white images printed on glossy paper.
