by Noel Coates

This is Volume 1 of Noel's definitive two-part history of Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway wagons. The book begins with a description of wagon building at the L&Y's carriage and wagon works at Newton Heath followed by a comprehensive description of wagon liveries.

The main section of the book covers all the single plank and open box wagons in minute detail supported by the copious use of drawings and photographs.

There are appendices covering wagon sheets and wagon running numbers.

If you are a wagon enthusiast or just want to know about L&Y wagons this book (and Volume 2) are a must.
