The East Lancs Railway, with its lovingly restored stations and authentic atmosphere is at the forefront of today's thriving preservation movement. Its variety of traction and rolling stock and the ever friendly welcome of its staff make each visit a joy that has had the author and many thousands like him coming back for more.
The aim of this series is to appeal to readers of all ages, perhaps for different reasons...For 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.
