Product Description

Product Description

It is only now, some 50 years after the first of these units entered service, that a true appreciation of their vital importance is being appreciated. As with other forms of traction, enthusiasts, who initially frowned on the DMUs when they were first introduced, have come to comprehend how vital the development of diesel traction was to the survival of the railway in many parts of the country. This book explores the activities of these units in East Anglia. The photos cover lines in the counties of Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire as well as Essex, outside the Greater London area.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not a bad book but a couple of criticisms, 4 Jan 2008
It is fair to say that there is plenty of photographs in this book, and that they are virtually 100% previously unpublished. What detracts from the enjoyment is that many of the pictures are tiny, with three or four crammed onto each page and also they are all black and white. It would have been nice to have had some colour in the book but I appreciate that there are budgets and suchlike that sometimes has to restrict the use of colour, especially in low-circulation enthusiast books.

I have travelled on the East Anglian railways for a number of years and the book reminded me of those old mechanical units from way back. I just wish the author had though of the old saying 'quality rather than quantity' when deciding how many pictures to put on each page.
