Description

‘Eastleigh Works’ is one of a series of 12 books being released in 2025 showcasing railway works and centres to commemorate ‘Railway 200’. Eastleigh owes its origins as a railway town and was for many years the principal employer in the area with both a locomotive and a separate carriage works.

Although both were amalgamated into one site many years ago, and despite under serious threat of complete closure, the former locomotive works has not only survived but now thrives as an independent workshop repairing and maintaining locomotives and rolling stock that might otherwise be found working almost anywhere in the country.

£1 from each edition sold will go to one of the Railway 200 designated charities – Further details are here – https://railway200.co.uk/about-railway-200/charity-partners/
