About the Author

Martyn Hilbert is an avid railway enthusiast and photographer since school days and has spent much effort and time in travelling on and recording the changing scene on the UK network since the mid 1970s. The Merseyrail Electric system has always been a particular favourite. He has been fortunate to have amassed a personal archive of notes, colour transparencies and latterly digital images. Having had occasional photographs and articles published in various railway periodicals and publications over the years, Merseyrail Electric is his first book.
