Book excerpt: Over the years the Severn Valley Railway (SVR) has amassed a magnificent collection of locomotives, carriages, freight wagons and maintenance rolling stock. This volume is the long-awaited new edition, the first to be produced by Silver Link in association with the SVR, and follows the popular Visitor Guide, recently published and selling fast! Compiled by David C Williams, a founder member and director of the railway, with contributions from fellow SVR volunteers and enthusiasts, this comprehensive volume covers all current stock on the railway and also includes details of many past visiting and resident items. Comprehensive details are provided for each item covered and the illustrations provide ease of recognition. Railway modelers will find the information contained within these pages of particular interest as they seek to extend their collection of rolling stock. The SVR has an extensive collection of carriages spanning many eras of British railway history and can for the most part when required pair the correct locomotive with the correct rolling stock to represent the period desired. Featuring both steam and diesel locomotives, large and small, static, in service or under restoration, this volume is sure to prove popular.
