<p>This long-unavailable facsimile reprint of the Autumn 1964 edition is in the famous and by now very familiar Ian Allan abc series of locomotive and other motive power reference books. It lists the remaining pre-nationalisation locomotives along with the BR-built steam locomotives. The modernisation of the railway motive power scene can clearly be seen with the inclusion of the 'new era ' diesels, electrics and multiple-units. Perfect nostalgia for those lucky enough to be around at the time - and an informative slice of railway history for everyone else.</p>

History

Ian Allan Pub

The Beeching Report 'The Reshaping of British Railways' was first published in 1963. This seminal document, about which much has been written and which remains highly controversial to this day, was one of the major influences in the creation of the railway industry in Britain today. The original report was produced in two parts: the first incorporated all the statistical analysis along with the schedule of stations and lines to close, whilst the second incorporated about a dozen maps that supplemented the information imparted by the written report.  The original maps were relatively basic and designed to offer little more than a visual aide memoire to the actual report. These included maps recording the passenger lines destined to close in whole or in part, the coal freight flows not already carried by rail, the density of freight tonnage from each individual station and the freightliner routes and terminals then under construction. However, the combination of these two elements in conjunction with the cartographic database that has been the foundation of a number of railway atlases (including the recently reprinted 1955 volume), create a new, highly informative addition to the railway atlas series.
