This new title, produced by expert Kevin Robertson, concentrates on
the coaches of the GWR in great detail. There has been a renewed
interest in the rolling stock of the old Great Western Railway in
recent years. While several books exist describing the history of
the stock, this is the first title produced illustrating the
subject in color. Wherever possible, individual vehicles are seen,
none in preservation, and all the carriages depicted either built
by the Great Western, from companies absorbed by the GWR, or to a
GWR design. Because of these deliberate limitations, the
illustrations are particularly appealing and include Hawksworth and
Collett stock, with a feature on the Super Saloons, special duty
vehicles, the Toplight design, restaurant cars, auto trailers, as
well as camping coaches and a limited number of former passenger
vehicles in departmental use. This new title includes carefully
researched captions as well as diagrams and lot and running
numbers.
