Joe MCMLXI Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 (edited) Hi, a friends late Dad had this "Hassop" key in his collection of Model railway / Railwayana - is it possible that the " Hassop" key is Railway related. If I search for Signal box key, the images are always for much more 'modern' looking items. This appears to be much older, seems strange to have a key marked 'Hassop'. Amy thoughts / help on if it it you think it could be related to the railway infrastructure at Hassop station, in Derbyshire. I don't have the key in my possession, so can't currently answer any specific questions about its detail, but I shall see it next Saturday... best regards Joe Edited July 28, 2018 by Joe MCMLXI Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold TheSignalEngineer Posted July 29, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 29, 2018 The key end looks to be a fairly common Victorian design. Look to see if it has any markings other than the name, as railway companies were quite good at marking their property. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
