Fascinating and detailed examination of William Stanier's 4-6-0 steam locomotives that he designed for the LMS -- the express passenger Jubilees intended for service unsuited for the larger Royal Scots or Pacifics and the mixed traffic Class 5s (and their direct descendent, the British Railway standard Class 5). Based on thorough new research, the authors describe the the development of all three classes and discuss their records and performance (shown on numerous charts). They evaluate the many detailed variations and experiments that were carried out on individual engines to make their good performance even better. Over 800 of these engines were built and almost 20 still remain in service on private tourist railways. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos and detailed schematic diagrams. With rosters and lists of named locomotives. 96 pages with index.
