Thanks for the info. It is not that I am interested in the location as such. It's more a curiosity as to the manner in which Railways implemented...
I image the numbering was by line and a throw back from original companies but to complicate matters did some companies ie GER perhaps re-number...
Be wonderful if you can post a close up pickie, if that is at all possible.
Had to really think about that one! GOBLIN - Gospel Oak to Barking Line:)
Truly. I must try to get a book on Bridgeplates. It is a mystery how the numbering was carried out. One might assume each RLY numbered bridges...
Tis not the painting that is the issue but the casting patterns. The two's are of a different style and there are subtle differences in the...
Rather discombobulated now! This has just appeared on one of my alerts from one auction house. .[ATTACH] And from another auction house. [ATTACH]...
Talking of Bridge Plates. I am aware that the LMS used the same pattern of Bridge Plate as used by LNWR, and that BR also cast some but it appears...
Just looked on Google images for GWR coat hooks. Gadzooks -what isn't available new, and in a myriad of companies? Crown cap bottle openers, coat...

Prob. Repro. but as already asked, why? Or..... was there an exhibition around that time that included a 21T hopper wagon. The railways did like...
One of my local stations has had a number of Totems put up recently. Not had a chance to inspect them closely, but they do look nice. Obviously...
I do. I remember the discussions regarding repro shedplates, smokeboxes, totems etc in the 1980s revolved around the idea that these could not be...
Used to be quite heavily involved in Railwayana and could ask others on the scene, but since prices went silly (as far as I was concerned) have...
Little while back smokebox plate from King John , I think, (didn't take a lot of notice) appeared on Ebay. Looked the part and went for £250...
Just bought William L Withuhn's book. Thanks for the recommendation. Excellent read and dare I say indicates that GB didn't have a monopoly on...
Regarding C&Os Alleghenys, apparently ordered because by 1941 high drivered simple articulated (sic) locos had become a reality. The C&O looked...
Quite so but my point was made to the question of valve events/sizes made by @Jamessquared regarding their limiting the admission and exhaustion...
