Summary
Welcome to our third issue of BR Times, the history periodical dedicated to students and enthusiasts of the British Rail (BR) era. Amongst the variety of topics covered are chapters on: Blyth Cambois Diesel Depot, Edinburgh to Glasgow Class 47/7s, Class 08 withdrawals, Merry-Go-Round workings and the West of England route’s passenger services. Additional contributions come from a range of professionals and enthusiasts. Steve Knight looks at freight locomotives rescuing passenger services, Tom Connell lets us in on the inside story of his award winning EWS logo design, Adrian Paul depicts Horsham as a rail Centre in the 1980s, David Hunter brings us part 2 of his analysis of electric services over Shap and Howard Gibblett serves up a fascinating recount of his time at Cardiff Cathays wagon works. We also pay tribute to two railway enthusiasts through sharing some of the pictures taken by John Doggett and Andy Hoare.
