LMS Route: Rugby to Wolverhampton

Brandon and Wolston: lnwrbw2827

View of a LNWR train crossing the London & Birmingham Railway's River Avon viaduct at Wolston. The scene above is dated 1883 and taken from a larger image posted by Ronnie Bell on Flickr. It depicts a guard riding on top of each of the first three carriages which is thought to have been superceded by the 1880s with a guards van added to the train with one guard inside.
