Aimed at Rail enthusiasts, railway society secretaries, corporate event organisers and train professionals, Steam Railway gives you the power to find virtually anything you need to know about Steam Railways.
Unlike conventional directories, it offers more than just AZ listings, Steam Railway offers an expanse of useful information, allowing you to perform selective searches to suit your individual needs. The unique data compilation, management and programming delivery approach gives users complete control over their searches through over 200 UK and Irish Stream Railways and 3,000 locomotives and rolling stock. No other steam railway directory offers you the opportunity to locate services by a multitude of different routes, including the number of stations, number/type of locomotive, wheel alignment, date stock was built, sights of interest on journey and more. Also included are 800 photographs of trains, coaches, wagons and stations and an interactive diary. Users of the Steam Railway CD-ROM directory also gain 3 months free access to a daily updated web site.
