Martin S-C Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I am not sure if this collection on Flikr is known to members here, but Tony has extremely generously uploaded a large photographic collection from a deceased friend and placed no restrictions on their use other than to credit him with the ownership of any images used. I hope some of the photos are of interest. https://www.flickr.com/photos/hisgett/albums/72157626617067470?fbclid=IwAR2lLBgMBOvTRy4Zs20LVcdu6Ft67tPQg4aEgI8XLnnCd1V9rxFjga1pPz0 3 6 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Edwardian Posted August 13, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 13, 2019 Some familiar images, but many new and splendid! Thanks to you both. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin S-C Posted August 13, 2019 Author Share Posted August 13, 2019 After I posted the link and went and had a proper browse I realised I have seen a lot of them before, so one must presume others have been circulating Tony's images without crediting him. That's the nature of the internet, I suppose! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the nature of the internet, I suppose! I'd say that some of them (e.g. some NER ones and the GER No.1 Class in Johnson form) seem familiar from publications. Some of the GNR Singles pictures I'm sure I've seen published, although some kind soul did send me a bunch of photos of the class a while ago (memory shot, sorry). Most were new to me, particularly many of the GER ones, including a shot I'd never seen of the 552 Class and loads of mad Sinclair singles. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold melmoth Posted August 13, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 13, 2019 A number of the images appear to be the sort of official photos taken for recording purposes (particularly the GER loco ones). I think I've seen all the Broad Gauge images before, as well as the excellent shot of Willesden Junction. Could they have come from the late J.E. Kite archive?

I've certainly seen this one in a book (but can't remember which at the moment) and it's definitely not a 901, it's photographed at Scarborough and is an ex YN&BR loco and is in the NERA archive and credited to the 'Valentine Rippon Collection'. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

E B Wilson Class 213, it's in Hoole's Illustrated History of NER Locomotives and, I daresay, elsewhere. 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
