Originally published in 1970, this volume is a valuable source of
extensive data concerning Scotland's railways and locomotives. Material
that has appeared in books, technical journals, society and
institutional proceedings is here gathered together, enabling the reader
to easily trace details of design and construction on the five main
railways of Scotland from 1831 until 1923 when all the railways in
Britain came together under English control. As well as being of
interest to engineers, this volume will also appeal to railway and
social historians.
