The initials LNER
(London & North Eastern Railway) appear on the track diagram in
the background.
This suggests that the
photograph was taken before 1945 when Britain's four large railway
companies, LNER, LMS, GWR and SR, were nationalised to form
British Railways - or perhaps it was taken in the
early days of British Railways, before they got around to removing
the LNER name from the track diagram. |
