After the steam era came to an end on August 11, 1968, a modern and easier-to-maintain replacement was necessary. The word "modernization" was on everyone's lips. British Railways, followed by privatized companies, ventured into various methods of power generation. In the sequel to Remembering Steam, Paul Hurley and Phil Braithwaite transport readers back in time, delving into the history of traction, from the very first locomotive to the latest vibrant multiple units, and, of course, the lovingly restored preserved locomotives that grace heritage lines across the country. The Changing Railways of Britain boasts over 200 never-before-seen photographs, accompanied by heartfelt and nostalgic captions, making it a must-read book for railway enthusiasts.
