Publisher's Synopsis
One of the first areas to see the end of steam was the East of England - around 120 years after the first steam locomotives ran. Over this period, a rich history was developed through the construction of the various routes, the engines used and services offered. 'East of England Steam 1948-1963' examines the last years of steam in the region using over 200 excellent colour and black-and-white images from a number of sources.
