One thing that could be causing confusion is the message on the page saying nothing found. Ignore that bit and hit the menu button on the page and the drop down pops up with the PayPal links to purchase. Had me snookered for a second when I bought my copy.
It's a good book, you should all buy one. :wink:

Cheers
Paul.

Does this book say where driver Bill Sparshatt (Sparshott) and the firemen for record breaking locos were from?
