Fascinating collection of black and white photos showing Indian steam locomotives in action (the 1980s) just before they were replaced by more modern diesel and electric power. Some of the engines date back to the 1870s and all of them reflect the imperial era with a strong British flavour which is also seen in the architecture, signalling, and rolling stock. Covers the North Eastern Railway (Nepal Railway), Northern Railway, Western Railway, Central Railway, South Eastern Railway, South Central Railway, and the Southern Railway as well as a brief look at Bangladesh and Pakistan. All of the photos are intelligently and engagingly captioned. With a few maps. 96 pages.
