Looking Back at Riddles & Ivatt Locomotives is a photographic album depicting the designs of both Robin Riddles CBE and Henry George Ivatt. With 190 colour photographs, the book covers all of their British Railways Standard designs, the Austerities and Class J94s, as well as Ivatt’s own designs and modifications to the earlier locomotives from both Fowler and Stanier. This collection of photographs is sure to bring back wonderful memories of this last great era of steam-locomotive development on British railways.
