Tracking down mislaid photographs (WCJS and LSWR)

A fellow member of the model railway club I belong to is trying to track down a couple of rare and unusual photographs that he used to have in his possession. Unfortunately, he lent them to someone working on a project for him some time ago, and he hasn't been able to recover them, or find them anywhere else. The two photos are of:

One of the few West Coast Joint Stock GOODS brake vans, in WCLS livery, believed taken at Camden.  Only a handful were built, and in 1895 they were split between the LNW and Caledonian Railways, so a picture in the original livery is very rare.

An LSWR A12 Jubilee 0-4-2 taken at Rugby station in August(?) 1914. An LSWR loco this far north on a train is another rarity, and it would be nice to know the circumstances that lead to its appearance here.

If anyone has any pointers as to where these picture could be located, we both would be grateful.  He has contacted the LNWR Society and the South Western Circle but had no joy there.
