Old technology gives way to the new. Progress is inevitable – but is it more fragile than its inhabitants realise?

Early 20th Century Railways in Britain

The general dimensions of the whole class, apart from the 4 inch increase in wheel base for the last 100 were as follows:- Some really come things happen amongst beautifulturns of phrase, and I love the musical tie- in, but precisely one question is ever answered and the reader is left wondering - was there a plot?

Walschaerts and Stephenson valve gear engines from the 5225–5499 and 4658–4999 series. (+ pictorial supplement) The first was the absolute uncontrolled design departments in the LMS where very influential people previously with the Midland Railway dictated what went on, to weak design leaders and effectively prevented advancement of locomotive performance within the LMS. Much has been written about this situation and any book on LMS locomotives will include the arguments. Sci Fi Now What?

But my god to have thought up this part of the story is astonishing, and I did not see this coming at all. I just expected a neat little story about aliens landing on earth and chilling out. This was a lot more subtle and fabulously done. Appreciate the nod to the sun God Ra here to.
