RailWest Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Back in November last year an e-Bay seller was selling a number of sets of S&DJR B&W photographs covering a mix of subjects (eg pre-Grouping locos, BR-era stations etc). Perhaps some of you may have seen the listing? Did anyone here perhaps buy a copy of set BW2 please, which apparently included a picture of the inside of the signal-box at Shillingstone? Sadly all the BW2 sets had been sold by the time that I tried to get one :-( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a small proportion of the collection has been published on a long established blog, here, whilst the remainder has not been published. Naturally, no GWR images but all other locations were meticulously recorded. Cheers Jack Edited July 1, 2019 by Jack Benson Word omitted Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RailWest Posted July 1, 2019 Author Share Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) Is it known then please whether this includes any interior views of any of the signal-boxes on the ex-DCR, and if so which ones? Also, did the photographer start the task earlier enough to get views (exterior or interior) of Stourpaine or Spetisbury boxes?

I will ask at the next meeting however as you the know the blog you could ask. Sorry, but the owner does not wish to have any contact.
