Baby Deltic Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 I reckon a works order of 24052 would be a steam loco circa 1930. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baby Deltic Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 You could try the University Of Glasgow Archives: http://www.gla.ac.uk/media/media_60309_en.pdf http://www.gla.ac.uk...ia_67063_en.pdf Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bahram Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 Hello can anybody assist me on identifing a NBL works plate ? It has the number 24052. Does anyone know which loco this is from. thanks in advance Roy Would recommend 'the Glasgow Room' at the Mitchell Library in Glasgow.

Adam Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Well, they haven't been digitised or placed on-line, so no, you won't be able to except by going in person or getting someone else to do so. This is quite common with archives and is unsurprising given the scale of this one small part of the overall holding. I note the introduction the the Andrew Barclay archive gives the quantity as '153 metres' of shelving... Details of what to do on the homepage.
