About the Author | Peter Tuffrey was born in Doncaster in 1953 and studied Fine Art at Doncaster College of Art from 1970 to 1971. He held the position of Keeper of Fine and Decorative Arts at Doncaster Museum and Art Gallery. Tuffrey was the PR Media Consultant for Doncaster Rovers and in his spare time, has built up a massive photographic archive of the region's towns and villages. With this, he has produced over fifty publications including Doncaster's Electric Transport and Rotherham from the Scrivens Collection. He has also written many articles for local and regional newspapers. Dr Benjamin Walter Lamplugh Brooksbank (1927-2018), was a pioneering medical researcher at University College London and the Medical Research Centre. He was, however, separate from his distinguished medical career, a railway enthusiast with a deep knowledge of the East Coast Main Line, and his detailed research work forms the foundation of this book. |
