KI-generert info:

British Rail, 1948–78: A Journey by Design is a classic railway book by Brian Haresnape that focuses on the history and development of British Rail's design, liveries, and corporate identity during the first 30 years of nationalisation

Published by Ian Allan in 1979, the book provides a comprehensive, often pictorial, reference covering various facets of design, including: 

  • Rolling stock (locomotives and carriages)
  • Architecture (stations and other railway buildings)
  • Signage and corporate identity (e.g., the iconic double arrow logo and Rail Alphabet typeface)
  • Ephemera such as posters, notices, and staff uniforms. 

The work is considered a valuable resource for railway enthusiasts and design historians, offering insight into how a coherent and modern corporate image was developed across the newly nationalised rail system. A second edition was published in 1983, which updated the coverage to that year.
