A considerable variety of AC stock, both locomotives and EMUs, has seen service since 1959 when the first section of BR's newly-standard 25kV network was energised. With both West Coast and East Coast Main Lines and the lines from London to Norwich and King's Lynn so electrified and the final survivors of the first generation of locomotives, of Class 86 and 87, coming to the end of their careers this is a timely and comprehensive study of almost 50 years of development and success. c250 b/w and colour illustrations. 128 pages. Hardback.
