The author recalls his experiences following the change of an era as London's last trolleybuses were withdrawn between 1959 and 1962. He had access to a camera in the later stages to cover their replacement by Routemaster buses and also paints a general picture of the everyday central area bus scene and period views of their surroundings.
Following his first book, the author relates his experiences continuing his locospotting hobby from 1959-62. With black and white photographs, his records cover visits to locomotive sheds, works and time at stations and the lineside finally rounding off his reminiscences with modern colour views of locomotives which made it to preservation.
The author recalls his experiences as a teenage locospotter, following this hobby at a time when British Rail was entering a period of immense change. We look at the railways in action, visiting locomotive sheds and works in the period where diesel was beginning to oust steam. This book is illustrated with photographs from his own collection.
