"Illustrated with over 180 photographs, this book presents two
generations of railway photography of the southwest of Scotland.
The two 20-year periods of 1960-80 and 2001-21 were chosen because
the former covers the changeover years from steam to diesel, and
the latter covers privatisation, electrification, a range of very
colourful trains and a reawakening of the rail network in the
southwest after the downward trend during the last years of BR. The
book amply illustrates the lines from Glasgow to Gretna down the
Ayrshire and Inverclyde coast to Stranraer, along with the former
Glasgow and South Western line through Kilmarnock and Dumfries. In
addition, many of the branches and minor routes are also catered
for. Exploring the region through the decades, this book is an
invaluable source of reference for railway enthusiasts interested
in the railways of the southwest of Scotland."
