Totem Publishing 'Steam in Scotland'

The George C. Bett collection in the hands of the Transport Treasury consists of approximately 1,400 negatives, the vast majority of which were taken in and around the City of Dundee. George’s interest in railways started in the early 1940s when his parents gave him an Ian Allan ABC of Southern Electrics and after the family moved to Dundee his interest grew after witnessing, whilst travelling to school by tram, the Garter Blue A4s that carried stainless steel lettering.

This volume contains a choice of photographs from the collection dating between 1954 and 1966, showing a variety of locomotives operating in and out of Dundee West station on the former LMS route to Perth, connecting there with the lines north to Inverness and south to Glasgow. British Railways Standard ‘Clan’ and ‘Britannia’ Class 4-6-2s are regularly seen along with Standard Class 5 4-6-0s, both the Walschaerts and Caprotti valve gear versions. Sir William Stanier designed Class 5P5F or ‘Black 5’ 4-6-0s are also seen working along with the occasional LNER class of locomotive.
