160 pages. R. C. ('Dick') Riley (1921-2006) was one of the country's foremost railway ph otographers; starting with mono just prior to World War 2, he moved over to colo r in the early 1950s, when such film was both expensive and slow.

The book will have a foreword and preface by Richard Hardy - a we ll-known railway man who know the author for more than 50 years - and the newsca ster Nick Owen, again a personal friend, both of whom gave addresses at Dick Ril.…
