Looking Back at Stanier Locomotives is a photographic album depicting the designs of Sir William Arthur Stanier, Chief Mechanical Engineer of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway from the 1930s. With an extensive selection of colour photographs taken during the 1950s and 1960s, this volume covers locomotive types including Black Fives, Jubilees, Duchesses, all of Stanier's varieties of tank engines, Princess Royals, Rebuilt Royal Scots, 8Fs, and his Moguls, too. Paying tribute to Stanier's wonderful designs, the book allows the reader to explore all of the workings, liveries, tenders, chimneys and other details that might have been missed by the casual observer.

Looking Back at Riddles & Ivatt Locomotives is a photographic album depicting the designs of both Robin Riddles CBE and Henry George Ivatt. With 190 colour photographs, the book covers all of their British Railways Standard designs, the Austerities and Class J94s, as well as Ivatt's own designs and modifications to the earlier locomotives from both Fowler and Stanier. This collection of photographs is sure to bring back wonderful memories of this last great era of steam-locomotive development on British railways.
