Following the success of 'The Atmospheric Western' featuring the stunning photography of George Heiron, compiler Leslie Price has delved further into the Heiron archive to present this portrayal of George's work on the Midland lines from Bristol north - together with a further smattering of Western Region views. Proponents of quality photographs will be well aware of how George Heiron was a master of photographic composition, the train - or engine - just part of the overall image and as such we are treated to a record of the period in question; the 1950s and early 1960s.
