Chasewater Railway Museum – New Acquisitions

Chasewater Railway Museum

New Acquisitions

Our curator, Barry Bull, has been collecting again – this time a series of booklets published by the Institution of Railway Signal Engineers.

The booklets contain the substance of a series of educational lectures prepared for students under the auspices of the Institution of Railway Signal Engineers.

There are thirteen booklets in all and comprise the complete set.  As there are three signal boxes at Chasewater Railway, these booklets will hopefully contain useful information.

Also collected, three ‘Dapol’ O Gauge model wagons.

A 5-plank wagon of the Birmingham Railway Carriage and Wagon Co.

An 8-plank wagon of the Metropolitan Railway Carriage and Wagon Co.

and a 7-plank wagon of the South Wales & Cannock Chase Co.

We have also got a photo of a wagon from this company as new.
