As the British Rail years drew to a close and the new era of privatisation dawned, John Hillmer set out to record photographically the entire railway scene in Wales, and this remarkable and wide-ranging book is the result. Every Welsh Station that was open at the end of 1995 - the last year in which BR operated a fully nationalised and integrated system - is chronicled and pictured, and signal boxes, sidings, yards, locomotive depots, stabling and re-fuelling points are also covered, together with summaries of passenger services and freight flows, and locomotive classes and DMU types then in use.
