R.J. (Ron) Buckley's photographs illustrate the locomotive scene in
Scotland, witnessed across his long career on the railways. This
evocative collection of images commemorates the age of steam and
reveals the changes wrought across that era, from the 1930s ex-
Highland 'Castle' and 'Clan' 4-6-0s and the graceful looking
ex-Great North of Scotland 4-4-0s, to the ex-North British 'Glen'
and 'Scott' 4-4-0s, the Caledonian 4-4-0s, numerous 0-6-0 classes
and the few Glasgow and South Western locomotives still working. By
the early 1950s all the ex-Glasgow and South Western locomotives
had gone and there were few ex-Highland or Great North of Scotland
locomotives in service, but many ex-North British and Caledonian
locomotives could still be seen. It is a must-have volume for
Scottish railway enthusiasts.
