The B1 Class 4-6-0 locomotive was Edward Thompson's most enduring
design. Built from 1942-1952, the class totalled 410 examples and
was a familiar sight across former London & North Eastern
Railway territory. Thompson's B1s presents many of the engines at
work in the LNER and BR periods through 230 excellent colour and
black and white images. The locomotives are pictured at locations
such as: York, Newcastle, Darlington, Doncaster, Colchester,
Grantham, King's Cross, Marylebone, Neasden, Nottingham, Edinburgh,
Sheffield, Leicester, Hull, Fort William, Aberdeen, etc. The
photographs, which have been taken at stations, sheds, lineside and
workshops, are accompanied by well-researched and informative
captions. Thompson's B1s celebrates the importance of the class in
the history of the LNER and steam traction in Britain.
