It includes over 60,000 words and 400 black and white and colored photographs, many previously unpublished from the archives of the Manchester Locomotive Society at Stockport.

The LNER 4-6-0 Tender Mixed Traffic Locomotives delves into the design, construction, operation, and performance of all 4-6-0 locomotives that operated on the London & North Eastern Railway between 1923 and 1947, as well as the LNER-designed engines that ran on BR's Eastern Region until the end of BR steam in 1968. This comprehensive coverage encompasses a wide range of locomotives, including the former Great Central 4-6-0s of classes B1 to B9 (later reclassified as B18 and B19), the North Eastern Railway B13 to B16s, the Great Eastern B12s, and the LNER B17s, Thompson B1s, and rebuilds (B2 and B3/3). With over 60,000 words and 400 black and white and colored photographs, many of which have been previously unpublished from the archives of the Manchester Locomotive Society at Stockport, this book offers a wealth of information for railway modellers, enthusiasts of locomotive running and performance, and those seeking a deeper understanding of locomotive history. Authored in the same style as David Maidment's previous Locomotive Portfolio books on engines of the Great Western and Southern Railways, it incorporates his own experiences, observations, and travels behind these classes of locomotives in the 1950s and early 1960s, particularly focusing on the B1s, B12s, and B17 Sandringhams.
