This major four volume work covers the complete locomotive story of the Great Northern Railway and
Doncaster works from earliest days to the grouping.
Each class is covered from all six designers -
Cubitt, Bury, Sturrock, Stirling, Ivatt and Gresley. 1,553 Doncaster built engines are covered, plus
those bought in. Their robust design was demonstrated by almost half of the GN locomotives passed to the
