Highland Railway Carriages and Wagons - Tapa dura

It is now more than 90 years since the Highland Railway ceased to exist as an independent railway. Since that time countless railway and train books have been produced, but there are still gaps, one major omission being the rolling stock of the Highland Railway. Renowned railway historian Peter Tatlow now fills that gap with a detailed and learned work incorporating all the available information that it has been possible to gather and is published in conjunction with the Highland Railway Society. As an independent concern, the Highland Railway acquired its rolling stock from a variety of sources, those that survived after 1923 being incorporated into the mighty LMS. Even so, some vehicles lingered on well after that date and these too are shown in the style of their new owners.

Peter Tatlow is a highly successful railway author whose previous works have included LNER Wagons, Highland Locomotives and more recently the acclaimed series entitled Railway Breakdown Cranes.
