Encyclopedia of Trains & Locomotives by David (ed) Ross

This is a heavy, coffee table size book which is a relatively comprehensive and useful encyclopaedia of locomotives and trains from the earliest days. I don't think I would have bought it for full price, but from a bargain book shop it seemed like a good buy.
