Frank Giles' spotting books; mid 1930s south end of the ECML

Post by JASd17 »

Please find uploaded a sample page of some of the most interesting spotting books still around. Very nearly lost only a few years ago.

I am digitising all 9 note books, around 1500 sightings each, for the LNER Society. I hope you all enjoy.

I am passing on all the Pacific sightings to Tommy Knox, to add to his marvellous data base of Pacific workings.
