Amassing over 52,000 miles from Kent to Cornwall, here is Keith Widdowson's journey as he raced against time to chronicle the steam locomotives working throughout southern England before they succumbed to modern traction 46 years ago. From sleep deprivation to gung ho drivers, this is no ordinary trainspotter's diary but a nostalgic and evocative look back to how things really were in those steam days.
