As with other BR regions in the era post 1955, there was an increasingly rapid decline of steam on the Scottish Region from the late 1950s onwards as the products of the Modernisation Plan gradually emerged. For a variety of reasons, most notably as a result of the retention of pre-Grouping designs (such as the ex-NBR 'J36s') in front line service and the decision to restore four examples of the pre-Grouping classes for main service in the pre-1923 livery. Scotland was a popular destination for railway enthusiasts from the late 1950s onwards. Brian Dickson as a resident of Edinburgh was more fortunate than many in that he was recording the contemporary scene in and around his native city. During the years from the late 1950s until the end of ScR steam in 1966 he recorded much of the transition from steam in the area to the south of a line from Fort William to Aberdeen. This book is the first in a new mini series that will include 200 mono illustrations, largely unpublished, along with introduction and detailed captions, recording the final decade of steam operation. There have been no recent titles using the same series name.There was Steam Finale North published in the 1970s, but this is long out of print. There have been a number of Scottish railway titles over the years. These include: On Highlands Lines, On West Highlands Lines, On Glasgow & South Western Lines, On the Waverley Route, Lost Line: Scotland, Scottish Railways Then & Now

The city of Glasgow, formerly one of the largest industrial centres in the world, was once responsible for building about one-quarter of the world's railway locomotives. This was complemented by a massive urban railway network: the second largest in the UK. However, the Beeching Report of 1963 inevitably took its toll on Glasgow. This book examines the changing face of Glasgow's railways ever since that infamous report, starting with the period of rationalisation and industrial decline that followed. It also explores the revival enjoyed in the last few decades, with lines reopened and modern rolling stock introduced. Furthermore, with Glasgow hosting the 2014 Commonwealth Games, it looks at the emphasis being placed on the railway as further development work takes place.

In 1923, the multitude of British railway companies merged into four large groups; two of these had lines in Scotland. They, the LMS and the LNER, were to have a profound affect on transport north of the border. The two "super companies" provided the Scottish public with rail services through the violence of the 1926 General Strike, the streamlined glamour of the 1930s, and the bombs and blackout of the Second World War.
