Summary: | A compact but comprehensive overview of private owner wagons on BR in the TOPS era. |
Review: | This well-illustrated book sets out to describe all the privately-owned wagons registered on TOPS (ie since 1975) with tables giving build and numbering details and a narrative description of the design and operation of each type. Within the text are many useful references to liveries and details such as lengths and wheelbases. The captions of the monochrome pictures helpfully describe the colour schemes carried. UK-registered RIV wagons are included. |
