Thank you all very much at Transport Treasury for your amazing books that you produce.
I purchase Western Times, Midland Times and Railway Times and find that they are always full of excellent articles and wonderful photographs.
I have also purchased other titles from your extensive catalogue which are always a First Class read.
I very much look forward to future copies.
Best regards

‘Another well-formulated edition of this very educational series. 1952 is the year of my earliest railway interests, generated by a house move to a location beside a low viaduct just east of South Tottenham East Junction carrying the Tottenham & Hampstead Junction Railway line to Barking. Scribbled numbers were later transferred to my first Ian Allan ‘Midland Region’ spotters book and I was hooked. Two minor points – I believe the cost of the Centenary Express converts to £1.12 1/2p (p.37) whilst the reference to Y10 No. 68186 never carrying its allotted number is contradicted by the photo on the opposite page (p. 66/67). Regardless, an excellent mix well worth five stars.
