During their visits Cedric would take pictures of trains, people and station life. These pictures are now available to purchase thanks to John making them available to help fund the Return to Grantham project. The project aims to record life at Grantham station, its steam shed and the people whose lives were shaped by the railway. This catalogue covers the photos of the A1, A2, A3 and A4 Pacific Locomotives. All photos are available to purchase. Please use the catalogue to quote reference numbers and then use the separate order form. All images unless otherwise stated are Copyright of John Clayson.
