D1036 Western Emperor

£16.99

TO BE PUBLISHED IN 2022

D1036 gets the Chronicle treatment in this volume and investigates just why the numberplates on this locomotive were higher on the cabside than any of her sisters. Was it done to accommodate wiring as many enthusiasts believe? Or was there another reason behind the higher than normal positioning of the numberplate. Theories abound but the men on the ground in Crewe Works know what really took place. Allied to this is the story of the locomotive missing out on the maroon livery phase of her life, one of three engines to go straight from green to blue. As usual the book is A5 in size with dust jacket and crammed full of colour and black and white pictures on glossy paper inside. It is yet another valuable book in the Chronicles series. Retailing at just £16.99 with prices now held for three years, it is worth the investment for those Western enthusiasts who want to learn the truth and not hearsay. Post and packing, as ever, is FREE!
