Book Diesel Hydraulics Class 22

[Tappa]

I've just received my copy of Diesel Hydraulics Class 22 from Western Legacy Publications and I can sum it up in one word - superb. It Is the precursor to a hard back book of the same name due out later this year. This issue has photos of every member of the class in various liveries. Around a quarter of the book is colour. I believe that it is a limited print run.

Mine arrived as well. Whilst some of the shots are familiar, it is good to have them in one place and nicely printed.
Really looking forward to the h/b

Sounds like just what I could've done with about two years ago....

Will the Hardbound duplicate this version?

 

[Captain Kernow]

From what I can tell, the hardback version is supposed to be the 'definitive' book on the Class 22s. There may end up being some duplication with the soft cover, but I'm guessing it's going to be worth it, so I shall be ordering one...

Me too, Im stalling on my 63 until it arrives as knowing my luck a full cab photo will turn up after I have finished the model...

Anyone know any more on this?

Edit:
A quick Google search came up with the facts that it is due to be launched March 2013, and that it can be pre-ordered.

So I did.

Unfortunately their deadlines are 'flexible' so it may well be later

AFAIK it sold out some months back. It was a taster/teaser for the definitive hardback book due to be published on 31st March next. It ran to 40 pages of at least one captioned colour and b&w photo of every 63xx. It was priced at £11.99 and available only from the publishers. You might want to give them a ring on 01733 269990. I doubt that the photos will be reused in the hardback.
