Description
Steam on the Isle of Wight: The Postwar Years by Adrian Kennedy
In 1945 the railway network that served the Isle of Wight was intact – less than a generation later of lines had closed and steam tradition had been replaced on the one surviving section by surplus electric stock acquired from London Underground. Featuring a wide range of images from the two decades of operation after the end of World War 2. This book is an evocative reminder of the railways that once served the island.
