The aim of this series is to appeal to readers of all ages, perhaps
for different reasons...In this volume: We travel back to the year
1977, as ever an eventful year, that included:* The Centenary Test
Match * Red Rum wins Grand National for third time * Silver Jubilee
of HM The Queen * Smaller GBP1 note released * Concorde New York
service begins * London Underground Heathrow extension opensFor the
younger reader there are wonderful pictures of trains, real trains.
There will, for example, be tank engines, steam engines, electric
trains and multiple units and many more varieties besides! Some
will be recognised from train sets, model railways and books, while
others will be seen for the first time. For the older reader the
books are designed to build into a collection placing the railway
in the context of key events thus providing an historical
perspective of travel in times past. For those old enough to
remember the years depicted, the series will, we hope, provide
reminders for many of school days, time perhaps spent
train-spotting, shed bashing and generally gricing! The books also
make ideal theme gifts for the year of birth, marriage, retirement,
starting work and other such events in life.
