At the nationalisation of Britian's railways in 1948, the railways
in the north-east of England had been placed within the North
Eastern Region of British Railways, and had been given a
distinctive orange corporate colour. It was with some shock that
late in 1966 it was announced that from January 1967, the North
Eastern Region would lose its autonomy and be merged with the
Eastern Region. This book shows diesel traction at work within the
North Eastern Region up to its demise in December 1966 and
afterwards as part of the enlarged Eastern Region. A broad range of
diesel engines can be seen in this book, which takes a
chronological approach to documenting the day-to-day activity of
the area's rail network.
