The East Coast Main Line (ECML) runs from London King's Cross to Edinburgh Waverley, with branches to Leeds and Hull, and a continuation on to Aberdeen. Historically, it has been the West Coast route's high-speed competitor for Anglo-Scottish traffic and has traditionally featured the fastest trains available on Britain's railways, showcasing many different locomotives and rolling stock over the years.
With over 120 images, including a range of maps and drawings, this book details the construction and layout, providing a thorough history of the creation of the line. It also looks at the wide range of different locomotives that have featured over almost two centuries, giving a comprehensive history of the many famous, and not so famous, locomotives that have hauled trains over this prestigious route.
