Mortons Books  |  The Ones That Got Away
Britain invented the steam locomotive and, in doing so, shrank the globe. Flying Scotsman, Mallard, City of Truro, Stephenson’s Rocket – these are
all landmark locomotives that are part of our heritage fleet and for decades household names in their own right.
But what about the ground-breaking locomotives that laid down markers in our railway history – and yet for various reasons ended up in the scrapyard rather than in the museum berth that their achievements richly warranted?
They are The Ones That Got Away, and this volume looks at the key locomotives that we have lost… and in some cases are now working to replicate to plug missing gaps in the rail heritage record.
