The Class 50 Alliance/The Fifty Fund are pleased to present a book covering the recent year of celebrations to mark 50 years of Class 50 locomotives. 
 
As well as providing a background to the operation of the class under British Rail, Craig Taylor and Jonathan Dunster have captured the behind-the-scenes story of the planning, preparation and delivery of a year of 50th anniversary events including seven mainline railtours and the highly successful Class 50 Golden Jubilee gala at the Severn Valley Railway which brought together 11 of the locomotives. 
 
104 pages packed with stunning, and previously unpublished photography throughout.
A fascinating account of the miraculous restoration of 50033 Glorious which was resurrected just in time to star in the Gala event.
A look at heritage operations,
A round up of mainline activity
and a detailed history of 50007 from its delivery in 1968 to the present day. 
 
Only 500 copies of this exclusive publication will be sold, making it a memento of a very special 50th year. 
 
All profits from the sale of this book through this store will support the ongoing maintenance and restoration of our locomotives.
