David Soggee's slide shows have been captivating railway society gatherings in London and the Home Counties for many years, but he has had few pictures published and is probably not so well known outside this area. Now, for the first time, he has assembled a selection of his photographic masterpieces for a wider audience to enjoy. This album focuses on the Western Region as it was in the late 1950s and early 1960s, before diesel traction and the Beeching branch line closure plan had made significant impact. In addition to a wonderful variety of locomotives and routes, the images also portray the railway infrastructure of the time and will delight the modeller and historian alike.
