Locomotives of Portugal and Spain
Price range: £18.95 through £19.95
In the summer of 1966 three railway enthusiasts set out on a journey through Portugal and Spain. Their goal was simple – to witness and record the last days of steam on the CP and RENFE before these majestic locomotives vanished from the rails for ever. The trio experienced the charm, challenge, and excitement of railway exploration in unfamiliar countries of a bygone age.
The book presents a carefully chosen selection of photographs, many in colour, from that remarkable trip: vivid scenes of steam (and occasional other power), grand and modest stations, and glimpses of everyday railway life and work in 1960s Iberia.

Excellent selection of mostly black and white photographs, on good quality paper with detailed captions, showing the wide variety of the often very antiquated steam locos working in 1966. 112 pages, of which 18 cover Portugal.
