The patronage of main line steam specials is a question of interest to all. No riders, no trains for the photographers! New names continue to feature in the main line steam business. One of the latest and less publicised newcomers is Northwich shed which has been host to a number of steam locomotives since 1980. Brian Dobbs paints the picture for us — a one-time steam depot and now an operational BR diesel location giving accommodation to such variety as a 'Duchess', an 'A4' and Lord Nelson.

We are delighted to welcome Allan Heyes as our Steam Photographer in this issue. His book — London Midland Region steam — the closing years (Ian Allan Ltd,' £5.50) — won a deserved reputation when it appeared a couple of years ago. Allan decided to take up the camera again and has brought a refreshingly new look to steam photography. Cover: BR '9F- 2-10-0 No 92220 Evening Star at Aynho, heading for Banbury with the 'Rising Star' charter train of 13 September 1981. W. A. Sharman Still on the main line, John Bird spreads the net wider by recounting an interesting story of specials running from a private railway to a destination on BR. A reminder, too, that the cause of railways — BR and private alike — should be our main concern. Preservation — the act of— takes in two contrasting subjects. Trains Illustrated will from this issue carry a regular feature on rolling stock preservation — all too often neglected in favour of locomotives. When it comes to motive power the more interesting industrial locomotives frequently are forced to the back of the queue. Few will disagree when they read Vernon Smallwood's absorbing story of Bellerophon that such locomotives deserve a better deal. And last, but not least — the grass roots. Chris Leigh concludes his look at trackbed preservation with a study of the Plym Valley Railway.
