Contents Listing - Articles & Features in this issue
Bringing back the 'Dub-Dee': - The War Department 2-8-Os, designed by Robert Riddles, were introduced in 1943 and 733 entered British Railways service. All were scrapped - but the Worth Valley Railway is planning to re-introduce the 'Dub Dee.' John Leyland recalls the 'WDs' and describes the Worth Valley's plan. WITH COLOUR
Summer Saturday at Torre, 1947: Keith Beck describes a busy day on the Kingswear branch in 1947, when 53 down and 44 up trains passed in a 24-hour period. WITH COLOUR
Full Gear & Flat-out: Opened in 1840, the Lickey Incline was the steepest main line gradient in Britain - two miles at a gruelling 1 in 37. John Mosedale and O.S. Nock celebrate 150 years of this famous and spectacular piece of railway. WITH COLOUR
Nice train, shame about the headboard...A colour feature in which Keith Pirt reveals a couple of very obtrusive headboards from the 1960s. COLOUR FEATURE
Edinburgh Princes Street: the forgotten terminus: A.J. Mullay recalls this often overlooked former Caledonian Railway terminus, where 'Pacifies' worked local trains whilst tank engines were in charge of crack expresses. WITH COLOUR
By Bulleid to the West: A colour feature by regular contributor Geoff Rixon, looking at air-smoothed and rebuilt Bulleid 'Pacifies' at work in 1962/64. COLOUR FEATURE.
'Beachy Head' - Britain's last 'Atlantic': R.C. Riley concludes his look back at the Brighton 'Atlantics' designed by Richard Marsh and introduced by the LBSCR. Part 1 appeared in the August 1990 issue.
Book Review: A new feature in which we look at new books of interest to readers of Steam World. This selection includes SR branches, art and Bulleid 'Pacifies.'
'A4s' on Stoke Bank: A colour feature by Noel Ingram, conjuring the days when green 'Streaks' were a common sight, either with maroon BR coaches, or umber and cream liveried Pullman stock. COLOUR FEATURE.
This was the News: There's a new look for this regular feature this month. In a special joint venture with The Hulton Picture Company (formerly the BBC Hulton Picture Library) we shall be bringing you top quality news pictures from the past, accompanied by a modern introduction and the original captions. This month's selection looks at locomotive design and liveries, freight handling and the Festival of Britain, in 1951. HISTORIC PHOTO-FEATURE
Platform: Plenty of former spotters were 'carpeted' for 'bunking' round locomotive sheds - but were any Steam World readers ever actually prosecuted and fined? Other selections from this month's editor's postbag includes the last word in The Ladykillers' correspondence - and when was the last pre-1948 ticket sold?

Front cover: Nottingham's 'Crab1 2-6-0 No. 42896 rests in Norwich Works on Sunday October 13 1963, after working the RCTS 'East Midlander No. 6' from Nottingham via Crewe. The return trip to Nottingham via the West Riding of Yorkshire produced a 276-miles duty for the 2-6-0. Bill Ashcroft.
