Radstock Coal & Steam Volume 2 by Chris Handley. The Somerset & Dorset at Radstock and Writhlington: Buildings, Locomotives and Workings.
Volume 2 examines the real estate as it evolved and at the motive power department and its locomotives. All major structures of the station and yard are described and in most cases there is a detailed scale drawing and photograph which will prove invaluable to modellers. The development of the yard is fully chronicled and a working history given of all resident locomotives in addition to illustrations of each class.
Accounts of accidents and further anecdotal material are included as well as details of the colliery workings.
