Steam in South Wales
Volume 6 - The General Scene
by Michael Hale.The final volume in this excellent, fully illustrated review of steam operations across South Wales. The earlier regional volumes of this series are now sadly out of print, but this volume covers all of South Wales, including many lines not previously examined in detail, and with many of the images having never before been seen in print it is a worthy conclusion to the series.
