In the late 1940’s it was readily apparent that steam was quickly being displaced by new diesels on the likes of B&M, CV, MEC, Rutland, and BAR. John Morrison, George Dimond and several other notable photographers began a systematic quest to record the vanishing breed on color film, the results of which are shown in this book. There’s early diesel, too!
