In the 1970s, Andy Sparks was an avid train-spotter and keen photographer. As he travelled around England, primarily the northwest, he realised that vestiges of the steam age remained all over the network, even though it was now well and truly over. His camera captured day-to- day life on the railways. Virtually all of these photographs have never been published before: only recently have the films been rediscovered and printed. These eye-catching images of a changing railway will enthral any enthusiast, who lived through this period, and show how thoroughly stations, track, motive power and working practices have been modernised in the last thirty years.
