About the Steam Heritage Guide 2010

For over 40 years, the Steam Heritage Guide has been the most comprehensive annual guide to steam railways, heritage museums and events.

The pocket-size Guide easily fits into a pocket, bag or vehicle glove compartment, so the information is quickly at hand when you are out and about. Despite this internet age, guides such as this are still popular and provide a consistent and valuable resource, especially while travelling or for planning weekend breaks or holidays.

New Year and a New Team

This year the Steam Heritage Guide sees a change of ownership with a new team who plan to build on the achievements of former Editor & Publisher Chris Deith and his colleagues. Chris founded the Guide and his will be a hard act to follow; however, he was keen for me to take over the mantle.

With over 20 years experience in the heritage magazine business, I am well placed to develop this publication and over that time have been to many of the attractions listed as well as lots of events. The combination of my experience on the preservation scene and publishing background can add that personal understanding to help all users get the most out of the Guide.

The 2010 Guide will contain several updates to make it easier to use:

  • Updated design and layout with information clearly labelled
  • Museum and attraction listings will be by region so visitors can find nearby places of interest when visiting an area
  • For the first time many pages will be printed in colour

With best wishes
