The Illustrated Encyclopedia of the Workfe
Passenger Locomotives
Sadly, one of Man's most marvellous
mechanical creations, the steam locomotive,
has almost disappeared, a victim of the
technological and economic pressures exerted
by such upstarts as motor cars, aircraft and
trucks. This book is therefore presented as a
historical record, a magnificent tribute to a
form of transport that has spanned more than
150 years, and in particular to the steam
passenger express locomotive whose
attributes are generally being realised only
now that they are being snatched away from us.
Whether or not they have actually seen a
working steam express locomotive, or a
restored engine, the passionate enthusiast and
the casual observer alike cannot fail to be
moved by this handsome volume which
describes over 150 classic engines from all over
the world. Superbly complemented by
painstakingly prepared full-colour drawings
and splendid photographs, the absorbing
descriptions... Tovább

Passenger Locomotives
Sadly, one of Man's most marvellous
mechanical creations, the steam locomotive,
has almost disappeared, a victim of the
technological and economic pressures exerted
by such upstarts as motor cars, aircraft and
trucks. This book is therefore presented as a
historical record, a magnificent tribute to a
form of transport that has spanned more than
150 years, and in particular to the steam
passenger express locomotive whose
attributes are generally being realised only
now that they are being snatched away from us.
Whether or not they have actually seen a
working steam express locomotive, or a
restored engine, the passionate enthusiast and
the casual observer alike cannot fail to be
moved by this handsome volume which
describes over 150 classic engines from all over
the world. Superbly complemented by
painstakingly prepared full-colour drawings
and splendid photographs, the absorbing
descriptions relate the development and
service of the specially selected locomotive
classes, citing fascinating facts, quoting
interesting anecdotes and revealing Brian
Hollingsworth's obvious knowledge of
his subject and half-century love
affair with railways.
As an additional bonus there are two
eight-page panoramic fold-outs depicting four
true 'giants of steam' in full colour across the
width of four pages.
Without doubt there has never been a more
powerfully illustrated book on this subject; it
will be referred to and enjoyed for many years
to come. Vissza
