GRIDS
The Class 56 Story

From their conception in the early 1970s to the preservation scene of today, the Mighty Grids have captured the imagination and devotion of enthusiasts nationwide. This is the complete story of their varied and unusual lives - starting with the reasons why they were called into existence, how they were built, how their pattern of operations changed, and concluding with their final run-down, burial and resurrection.

The eleven chapters cover the British Rail/BREL era, Sectorisation, Trainload, and the period of private ownership, culminating in the French adventure and the triumphant return of a select few to the main line.

As well as the text, there are more than 200 high-quality colour photographs, diagrams, and extensive tables, including every known working on passenger stock.

This is the definitive book on Class 56!
