Ron Buckley’s photographs illustrate the locomotive scene in Scotland, witnessed across his long career on the railways. By the early 1950s all the ex-Glasgow and South Western locomotives had gone, and there were few ex-Highland or Great North of Scotland locomotives in service, but many ex-North British and Caledonian locomotives could still be seen.

  • Good quality printing and presentation

    The only downside to this otherwise excellent book is that the best photograph is on the front cover! The others are well restored and printed but the scenes are somewhat mundane and ultimately 'samey'. Static locomotives on shed abound and more 'out on the line' variety would have improved the book markedly. It may be that the photographer did not take many such views though! I'd rate the content as 6/10.
