A great interest of the author is steam railway locomotives, in particular the powerful ‘Merchant Navy’ class built by Oliver Bulleid, the Chief Mechanical Engineer of Britain’s Southern Railway in the 1940s. Thirty such locomotives were produced, each named after a shipping line served by the Southern Railway.
