A beautiful book with some dramatic pictures of the final days of these steam workhorses of Ayrshire's deep pit mining industry, some of which which were still operating right up until the 1970s. Deep pit mining itself of course was soon to be a thing of the past in its entirety. A nostalgic look at a great industry and whole way of life in the county. Tom Heavyside’s fact-filled text is, as always, a source of fascinating detail.
