The LNER Encyclopedia

Good morning all.

I am nearly finished with my work on some Southern items and these will be ready to order in a couple of weeks, after which I will do a small Western item of about 40 pages to see how I get on. Unfortunately, things have been delayed by some home improvements and pressures of work but I'm now back on track.

I will then be ready to get back to things Eastern. I was thinking of doing Section H next, Lincoln District (Freight and Passenger) Summer '53 but I also have;
Section O Liverpool St Suburban - West (Freight and Passenger) Summer '53 - 206 pages,
Section LTS (Freight) Winter '53 - 47 pages,
Section D Leeds District (Freight and Passenger) Summer '53 - 200 pages &
Section C Nottingham District (Freight) Winter ' 53.
Does anyone have any overwhelming wishes to see any of these done before I do Lincoln?
Once this is done I'll do the Newcastle District of the Nth Eastern before heading back to Scotland.

Hello.

I have now found time to turn to things ex LNER again. I've just added a North Eastern Section V WTT for Summer 1953. This covers freight & passenger traffic in the former Newcastle District which includes such lines as the Newcastle & Carlisle and the electrified Tynemouth Loop.

Personally i wouldn't mind getting hold of a set of WTTs of-

British Railways Eastern Region:Passenger, Parcel & ECS working for the Kings Cross area 1968-1975.

British Railways Eastern Region:Mandatory Goods & Freight train working for the Kings Cross area 1968-1975.

British Railways Eastern Region:Non-Mandatory Goods & Freight train working for the Kings Cross area 1968-1975.

Just for old time sake.

Sorry Micky, I only do items from the steam era. I don't know if anyone else does them

Good evening.

For those of you that are interested, I have now added a copy of the Summer '53 WTT for the Sunderland District (NER Section U) to the list. I can be order from my website; address below.

For those that are waiting for the Lincoln District WTT that I've been promising, I'm afraid I've had to put it back a little. I've been loaned two Southern items and I only have a very short time to copy them so I've had to bump them up the queue! I will get Lincoln done as soon as these are out of the way!

Hello.

Just an update - I'm am now half way through the Lincoln WTTs so it'll be a couple of months yet.
However, whilst I've been wading through Lincoln, I've done some smaller items, mainly carriage workings: one from the Southern, two from the London Midland, but one is from the Great Eastern. It's the Summer 1959 Carriage Workings for Chingford and Hertford East, combined into a single volume. This would be the last year of steam operation before electrification if I'm not mistaken and is quite interesting, particularly the 'Quints' used on the Enfield, Chingford and Palace Gates services.

They can be ordered from my website as usual (link below)

Oooh, I shall be looking forward to the Lincoln WTTs.

May I ask which years are likely to be reproduced from the area?

At the moment I'm working on Summer AND Winter 1953. They are similar enough so that a common template can be used yet there's enough differences to justify doing both.

I do have have a Winter '51 that I may do later (a little more interesting as the LDEC is still open to Chesterfield) but, for now, I'm trying to build a collection from a single year.
I'll post up a message when Lincoln '53 is ready.

BTW, if you wouldn't mind, please use the preorder link on my website: there's no commitment to buy but it gives me an idea how many to print ready for release.

Good evening everyone.

Good news! I've just added some new items to my collection.
The Summer AND Winter 1953 Lincoln District WTTs are finally ready, as are a set of carriage workings for the M&GN joint for 1958 (summer and winter in one printed volume) and a set of passenger guards duties for the Manchester and Sheffield district for Summer 1953.

I'm now turning my attention to other regions again and I hope to return to things Eastern next year.

If you want to order, please visit my website (link below)

(WTTReprinter asked me to move this thread to Classifieds, which I agree is more approriate)
