suggests South
Ruislip but is puzzled by the lack of any buildings or canopy on what would be
the underground side of the fence.

Picture 3-2 A “Dub-Dee” on iron ore hoppers – enough here
to identify the location?

Eastern Railway coaling stage – does anyone know it?

Picture 3-4 A distinctive piece of architecture
perhaps?

Picture 3-5 We suspect this might be in the
Lichfield area.

Picture 3-6 It’s ex-GWR and it’s on a canal. That must narrow it down a bit!

confirmation would be nice:

Picture 3-8 Niall Fergusson (HMRS Caledonian Railway
Steward) confirms Bevan Price’s thought that this is a Caledonian 782 class 0-6-0T fitted with a stovepipe
chimney. Mike Morant suggests Kingmoor, Carlisle, as several were located
there, and Niall mentions that some
439 class 0-4-4Ts went to the Chesterfield area in the 1950s, and this could be
true of the 782 class locos. (It looks
like a Markham Colliery PO wagon in the background.)

possibly?

3-12 Thanks to George Cash who thinks this is probably Sheffield car 504,
quite likely taken on the last day of services on 8th October 1960. George adds: “The Charles Roberts cars were
built in 1950-2 and numbered 502-536.
The style of numbering with a distinctly round 0 was also used on exteriors. Car 510 is at Crich and 513 is at
Beamish. The photographer’s reflection
can be seen in the window below the number – maybe someone at Crich can
identify him…”
