Default Traction engine books.

I have approx 300 books for sale.

The steam scene, all 5 vols, signed by Blenkinsop.
Development of the English T/E with dust jacket by Ronald Clark
Story of St Nicholas Works by Michael Lane. New - unread.
Design and construction of the T/E 1900-1930 by Gilbert. New - unread and signed. I have all of his books in this condition.

These are just a sample.

There are far too many to list. I also have original manuals and catalogues. Many rare and collectors items.

If you are after any particular book, please send title and I will see if I can help.

Please note that all the ORIGINAL handbooks, catalogues, instruction manuals, etc have been sold in one lot. I now only have reprints left, plus approx 100 books. My aplogies for the delay in replying to some enquiries. I was somewhat surprised at the response, but am dealing with everything in time/date order. Thanks.
