Description

The LNWR had a vigorous naming policy and the Midland Railway an equally determined anti-naming stance. The 1923 grouping set the stage for an absorbing battle within the management teams over naming policy with Derby’s early policy success followed by Crewe’s ultimate victory. Author John Goodman’s absorbing read presents the full story of the LMS and its constituent companies’ naming policies and the history of each named engine owned by the LMS, a total of 812. The LNWR contributed 668 of these and a complete presentation of its complex re-naming system is an invaluable inclusion.

Sequel to LMS Locomotive Names was published in 2002 as part of L&NWR Locomotive Names.  It was written as the result of the considerable correspondence following the 1994 publication of LMS Locomotive Names necessitating corrections and providing much entirely new information. The chapters on Regimental names and a much expanded list of naming ceremonies are particularly welcome.  This part is included in your purchase.
