This book presents an eye-catching and
evocative collection of the finest photographs to have graced the pages of
Steam Railway, Britain’s
biggest-selling railway magazine. Originally published in hardback in 2004 and
now available in paperback, Gallery of Steam is the ultimate portfolio of steam
photography, taken throughout the world – and mainly in colour - by readers of
the magazine. This book is as much about the skilled and dedicated
photographers who go to extraordinary lengths to capture the perfect image as
it is about the nostalgia of an earlier time, fading away like the steam from a
mighty locomotive on a crisp December morning.
