Post by: bobm on June 29, 2016, 20:37:55
When it was published in the late 1960s it got the author Gerald Fiennes the sack as Chairman and General Manager of BR's Eastern Region.

It has been a highly sought after book on the second hand market but is now being reprinted and will be available from 11th August.

It is also a very good read as I recall.
