Contents Listing - Articles & Features in this issue
NEWS FOCUS SPECIAL: Goodbye Willington Hall...and hello to Betton Grange and County of Glamorgan!
Two hundred years after Richard Trevithick launched his pioneer railway locomotive on an unsuspecting public, a groundbreaking new project to build a€~newa€ steam engines for the 21st century has just begun. However, it really is a classic case of old wine in new bottles, as the long-sought-after green light for the dismantling of several of the a€~Barry Tena€ pool of scrap BR locomotives to provide components for a€~new builda€ schemes to plug large gaps in preservation has now been given by their council owners, reports Robin Jones.

THE DUKE OF SUTHERLAND
Catching up with high-flying businessman and head of the Princess Royal Class Locomotive Trust Brell Ewart, the man who spearheaded the restoration of preservation icon Duchess of Sutherland, was never going to be easy. But needing to fit in with a 60-year-old rockera€ s schedule - now that was unexpected, as Keith Langston discovered.

BRANCH LINES!
If your passion is photographing steam trains set in the landscape, then trees can form a perfect aid to composition. Their unique habitat and structure forces the eye up, producing the most incredible depth and height. Seasoned linesider Ralph Ward takes an in-depth look at the sylvan side of railway photography.

THE CHANGEOVER YEARS/THE INDUSTRIAL SCENE: When the wheels of industry stopped turning
Vale of Rheidol Railway apart, British Railways ran out of steam on August 11 1968 but, significant though this date was to enthusiasts, it was by no means the end of steam in this country. While preservation was still in its early days, a€~reala€ steam continued hard at work at sites throughout Britain which quickly became much-visited Meccas for lineside photographers. Brian Sharpe looks at the fundamental changes in the nature of British industry which hastened the real end of commercial steam traction.

THE STEEL SNAKE HISSES AGAIN!
Two centuries after the worlda€ s first locomotive made its debut, one countrya€ s railway network has reverted to steam traction. Not only that, but it uses the worlda€ s oldest locomotive drivers and staff. Where else but Eritrea could you be brought out of retirement at 93 to work on the line? John Titlow reports.

RAILTOURS OF THE WORLD
If after reading John Titlowa€ s feature on the magnificent panoramas that await you in East Africa, you decided Eritrea in 2004 is not for you, then there are a host of other excellent tours featuring the best in steam and heritage diesel action elsewhere around the globe, as highlighted in our special advertisement feature.
