West Coast 4-6-0's at Work

by C. P. Atkins

Format: Hardback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £2.01
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Handsomely done look at the 4-6-0 designs of the London & North Western, the Lancashire & Yorkshire, and Caledonian railways. The book tells the fascinating story of how the 1906 LNWr "Claughton" design evolved into the 1930 LMS "Patriot" class, successfully meeting the West Coast's particularly demanding need for steam traction. Illustrated with over 200 black and white photos. With tables of dimensions and bibliography. 128 pages with index.
