This is the latest in Ian Allan's long run of coloured picture albums in the landscape format. They provide the opportunity to publish some of the large collection of coloured photographs that have accumulated over the years and this time concentrates on the London area in the green diesel era. This is an era of particular interest to 'modern' railway modellers as it refreshes memories for those who train spotted during the 1960s. A few blue diesels creep into the scenes and electric trains are not excluded. As usual with these books, each picture carries a lengthy caption.
