Klappentext

Join author Richard Clarke as he takes a nostalgic look back at the railways and rock music of yesteryear. Rock n' Rail chronicles the changing scene of the rail industry from steam to privatization - and the music industry from ballad through pop to rock.

Privately educated in a third rate public school and rejecting the silver spoon of the family business, Richard instead chose a route through rock music and railways. Never entirely sure which profession he preferred, he nonetheless took a lead role in both through the halcyon years of the 60s and 70s heavy rock period and the catastrophic privatization years of Thatcher. This is his tale.
