| L&SWR Locomotives: The Early Engines | 260pages | Hardback |
| D.L. Bradley | 1989 | £28.95 |
| A welcome reprint of the last of the late David Bradley's fine series on LSWR locos, and a story of designs many of which prevailed until the 1920s and even beyond. The photographic coverage is very good and shows much of interest in addition to the locomotives, including several views of Adams brake vans and the ubiquitous Panter road van. The book includes details of the three ex S&D George England 2-4-0s latterly used by the LSWR's engineering department. |

| LMS Loco Profiles No 11 The "Coronation" Class | 174pages | Softback |
| David Hunt, John Jennison, Bob Meanley, Fred James & Bob Essery | 2008 | £24.95 |
| Chapter and Verse on Stanier's magnificent machine, from development through manufacturing to operation and in service alterations, right down to an appendix of individual records for each class member. In addition to excellent photographic content this book contains a series of clearly reproduced works drawings covering all aspects of the locomotives, including full details of their streamlined incarnations. I do not think this collection of information will ever be bettered, an unimpeachable source of reference for would be model makers. |
