I bought the Haynes 'Manual' for the Routemaster bus also. I was hoping for a bit more technical information - a bit like their automotive manuals but these one offs seem to be a general history of the brand. I was hoping for a bit more on the mechanics but I suppose that would have limited appeal. Some good pictures of the exteriors of these impressive locos - again, it would have been nice to have seen a bit more of the internals and the engine room. Still, for £7 I can't complain.

This book is better than I expected. The contents are excellent with lots of photos & illustration. For me, the technical side of the locomotive workings are fascinating with great thoughtful text that doesn't bamboozle the not so technical mind (!) You too can read how to drive a hoover..me? I'm going to book a driver day now. Enjoy
