20世纪80年代和90年代的苏格兰铁路：时间快照

在20世纪80年代和90年代初，苏格兰是铁路爱好者的理想目的地。
许多机车牵引的列车在壮丽的风景中穿行，再加上幸存的铁路基础设施和机械信号，提供了许多绝佳的摄影机会。
我第一次乘火车去苏格兰是在1983年乘坐费尔迈德火车去珀斯的途中，当时是在飞苏格兰人之后。第二年，我再次前往苏格兰，这一次是乘坐F&W铁路游览“管道4号”的Skirl O’The Pipes 4，前往洛恰尔什和马莱格的凯尔，这是我第一次访问苏格兰高地。
我之前在国外旅行是为了铁路，但我看到的给我留下了深刻印象，我决定在苏格兰铁路发生太大变化之前，尽快回去拍摄它。
这是1984年至1991年6月期间一系列访问的开始，每次访问为期一到两周，覆盖全国。
这本书是对苏格兰铁路机车、火车和基础设施的摄影记录，以及我在访问期间用各种相机记录的火车运行的风景。
Scotland’s Railways in the 1980s and 1990s: A Snapshot in Time
In the 1980s and early 1990s, Scotland was an excellent destination for the railway enthusiast.
The many locomotive hauled trains running through splendid scenery, together with the surviving railway infrastructure and mechanical signaling, provided many fine photographic opportunities.
My first railway visit to Scotland was on board The Fair Maid rail tour to Perth, behind Flying Scotsman in 1983. The following year, I again traveled to Scotland, this time on the F & W Railtours The Skirl O’ The Pipes 4, to Kyle of Lochalsh and Mallaig, my first visit to the Scottish Highlands.
I had previously been traveling abroad for railways, but impressed by what I saw, I decided that I would quickly return to photograph the Scottish railway scene, before it changed too much.
This was the start of a series of visits, each for one or two weeks, between 1984 and June 1991, covering the whole country.
This book is a photographic record of the locomotives, trains and infrastructure of the railways of Scotland and the landscapes through which the trains ran, as recorded by my various cameras during the period of my visits.
