As a new author of children’s heritage locomotive books, I would like to introduce you to my trilogy of work. Featuring Holly, Tom, Pip the cat and the sceptical parents as they travel on various Steam Locomotive experiences around the country.

History, wildlife, geography, science, engineering and mythology are questioned and explored.
