About this product

Product Information

This fascinating pocket book draws on numerous primary sources from the early days of the rail network through to the Big Four, British Railways and beyond to present a unique guide to the knowledge and skills required for locomotive drivers, engineers and firemen. Beginning with an introduction to steam from about 1890, the book outlines the rules of the rail network, locomotive management from driving to servicing, a guide to signalling and operations, and rules of the running shed along with a wealth of practical advice and conditions of service for the men on the footplate. The Railwayman's Pocket Book offers a unique insight into the age of steam that will appeal to all railway enthusiasts.

Thank you. A Real Pleasure doing Business with you. Items as described. A mint boxed item, having been stored the grease in the drive gear / centre axle had solidified causing the wheels to cease up, being easily remedied. Serviced and run in, is now a really nice little locomotive. Arrived well packaged and quickly. Hopefully we shall have further opportunities to trade again in the near future.

  • The Railwayman's Pocket Book

    This little hard back pocket book contains a wealth of information about the rules of running railways in the steam era and should be of interest to railway enthusiasts and railway modellers. The content covers everything from how a steam loco works, firing and driving a loco, signalling and much more.
