The latest title from prolific local writer David Hindle, should be of interest to many of the readers of this page.
The new book covers all modes of transport which have played a part in the development of Preston, including the railways, but also focussing on our rich heritage in aviation, trams, motor vehicles and waterways. There are a substantial number of photographs to illustrate the text throughout, making it a suitable book to dip in and out of. Photographic highlights include the Deltic Prototype at the Dick Kerr Works, the production line for the Bond Minicar, a line-up of Canberra, Lightening and TSR-2, plus a good number of top-class railway images from the likes of Peter Fitton.
The book is out now and available from local shops and from Amazon.
