Description
The Late Light book captures the magic of steam locomotives in their final great era. From Australia’s rural lines to global steam-events, this vivid volume presents 168 pages of full-colour photography, documenting not just trains but the heritage, atmosphere and landscape around them.
Compiled by the talented team at CADECO, the book features images by Malcolm Holdsworth, Robert Kingsford-Smith and the late George Bambery, plus selected contributions from Paul Hogan, Pete Skelton, John Gaydon, Graeme Hind and Mark Lanham. Together, they bring the steam era to life in a way few have achieved.
Printed as a high-quality hardcover, Late Light book combines technical excellence with visual appeal. Each photograph is selected for its strength of composition, colour and storytelling power. The result is a tribute to steam’s last great flourish—its infrastructure, its motion, and its connection to place.
