Pictorial Record of the Diesel Shunter by Colin J. Marsden
For lovers of UK diesel shunters this book is the best (and hardest to find) of the breed. Pages and pages of photos and descriptive text. An outstanding book. If you can find a copy then purchase it. An ideal book for the diesel fan and modeller alike.
