Usual 'Book Of' format, with comprehensive history, photographs, every detail variation and change, works histories. The nation's favourite 4-4-0, a splendid Victorian design modernised by the Southern and best remembered for a protracted final fling on the 'Withered Arm' west of Exeter, out across Dartmoor to the sea at Padstow. Recently issued by Hornby as one of the firm's superlatively detailed models; the thousands of OO enthusiasts out there who bought one can hardly wait to get started on customising them using this book.
