Sobre este artículo
Over the past two decades (then 1970s) George Heiron has built up an unrivalled reputation as a railway artist for his unique ability to blend meticulous detail with a vivid impression of the pulsating life that characterised a steam railway scene.For this book he has specially
produced 48 superb paintings of British locomotives in action.The subjects range over the whole of this century,from colourful single-drivers,4-4-0s and Atlantics of the pre-1923 railway to the big 4-6-0s and Pacifics of the LMS,LNER,GWR and SR,and finally British Railway's 'Britannia' Pacific.They have been carefully selected as representative of the development of the British steam passenger locomotive since 1900.All but two of the plates in the book have never previously been published.The plates are reproduced on heavy art paper for maximum realism.The renowned railway writer O.S. Nock contributes a lively introduction and captions the portfolio,which is sure to become one of the most valued of all collector's items of the steam railway era in the years to come.
