Digging through the clutter in my railway room today, I found my long lost copy of the 50 years of the Met book, rather faded round the edges, but some wonderful piccys in there, including dual gauge at Hammersmith; inside the factory where the electric locos were lined up being built; a photo of the original contractors' train and much more.
I don't know if it's still in copyright so if anyone can tell me how, I'll try and post it here bit by bit.

When was it published? If it was over 75 years ago it should be all right.

Yeh, still seriously thinking about reprinting and publishing this book, it's too good to keep hidden. Just thinking, it must be 60 years of the Met, 1863=1923!
Anyone got any ideas on sales volumes for such books, it's a new one on me.
