This work is about the design successes, and failures, of Britain's most extensive state-sponsored industry. It is a story of people and ideas, movement and design, speed and colour; it is a comprehensive celebration of the crating, operation and marketing of a national railway system, by which four main-line companies with steam-powered empires were transformed into a modern transport system.
