North Eastern Railway Details
Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway Details
Commenced 1[SUP]st[/SUP] July 1908 with a six carriage rake comprising:-
All dual fitted with Westinghouse and vacuum brakes.
All semi-elliptical, high roof profile.
First class was positioned at Liverpool end of train.
One of the locomotive’s was a George Hugh’s 4-6-0 #1509 brand new in June 1908. Scale drawings for this engine are available.
Item #2 was removed from service after couple of years and replaced more central in the rake by a composite. This is a contender however I am having that checked.
Bogie Corridor Composite #’s 910 to 919 with 12F & 24T to Diagram #62. Dimensions 54’ 0” Long 8’ 6” Wide. 2 x 4 wheel Bogies wide bearing 8’ 0” wheel base
Another quite early addition was an open side Corridor coach intended as a smoking saloon located near to the dining section.
Need to determine what this one is.
