John Maxwell Dunn
Notable as being a railway engineer/enthusiast in the late LNWR/entire LMS period. Most is covered in his exceedingly outspoken autobiography. Also writer of several other books, articles (including one about Webb) and papers. Most closely associated with Beames' 0-8-4Ts and his attempts to keep them on the track. Author of history of Wrexham, Mold & Connah's Quay Railway.
Reflections on a railway career from LNWR to BR. London: Ian Allan,
1966. 184pp.
Very out-spoken autobiography of a fitter who became a
shedmaster.
Talbots's The LNWR recalled: collected writings and observations on the London & North Western Railway. (1987) is greatly enhanced by Dunn's writings, including correspondence with W. Noel Davies
