Railway World Yearbook 1991 By Colin Boocock Hard cover 80 Pages
Railway World Yearbook 1991 By Colin Boocock Hard cover 80 Pages
This is the first Railway World Year Book 'Railtalk' section to have been written at 125mph in a British Rail Mk 4 coach!
1991 is the year of completion of East Coast main line electrification. This 1991 issue supports that event with an article about the new Class 91 locomotives and Mk 4 rolling stock. Have you ridden the InterCity 225 yet?
Quite possibly you also enjoy riding steam-hauled trains, either preserved, restored or even the miniature variety. Dip into this book and revive your recent or distant memories.
Or perhaps you have a particular liking for the unusual locomotives on our railways, from compounds to odd and faintly idiotic tank engines. There is much to whet your appetite in this book.
Did you know that BR pumps nearly 5,000 gallons of water per minute out of the Mersey Railway tunnel? Where does it go? Is it true that somebody actually buys it?
What was the first main line to be built across the European Alps? What are the railways like in New Zealand?
These are not questions in our popular railway quiz (see page 76). To answer these questions you might think you need to be a highly intelligent, well travelled railway historian (which you may well be). But all you actually need do is read this Year Book. There is something in it specially for you.
