Nicholas Whittaker’s much-loved classic recollects the long sunny days of his childhood when, notepad in hand, jam sandwiches in the duffel bag, he happily spent his time jotting down train numbers during the Indian summer of steam and the heyday of diesel.
Whittaker returns to his roots in this updated edition, casting a sceptical eye over recent developments, catching up with old acquaintances and considering the toll that half a century of ridicule and a couple of decades of privatisation have wrought upon his beloved pastime.
This is a poetic memoir of growing up in a more innocent age, a hymn to British eccentricity and, in these days when evryone's eyes are glued to monitors and mobiles, a salient reminder of times when we took a real interest in the
world around us.
Ideal for: Rail enthusiasts and transport admirers.
