A Train is for Life by Pete Waterman:
After spending more than four decades in the entertainment business, Pete Waterman’s depth of knowledge and his breadth of experience is unsurpassed. His passion, drive and talent have helped ensure that he, along with his world-famous company, PWL, remains a musical force to be reckoned with. But his other passion is railways and in particular, model railways - his interest started as a youngster train spotting on Leamington Spa station to working on the railways as a fireman before he became one of the world’s leading music producers.
This unique photographic record of his extensive and exclusive model railway collection is a significant new book and builds upon the many years that Pete has dedicated to his hobby. His collection is well known and is displayed at many shows and exhibitions across the country, but this book gives the opportunity to show the collection on a wider scale. Stunning images of locomotives, both steam and diesel, plus rolling stock will be featured, along with details of the models themselves, the model maker and specific information about the model type.
This is a marvellous book to own and dip into for anyone who has an interest in the railways; particularly all ardent railway modellers; more general readers will also be fascinated by the art and skill of model making in miniature.
