Publisher's Synopsis

Designed by Oliver Bulleid for the Southern Railway, the 'Leader' class was revolutionary. However, despite exhaustive testing, the project was beset with technical problems and, by the time it was cancelled, it had cost some £500,000 of the taxpayers' money. This is the story of the ill-fated venture.
