HMRS PHOTOGRAPHS from the JOHN TATCHELL COLLECTION File ADD 5
HMRS PHOTOGRAPHS FROM THE JOHN TATCHELL COLLECTION File ADD 5 Photos ADD 501 - 525 were mostly taken from, or near to, Mortlake signalbox or the adjacent railway cottage. Most are dated June 1914. Electrification was authorised in 1913 and some conductor rail was installed by 1914. Electric operation through Mortlake, on the Waterloo - Waterloo services via Kingston and via Hounslow and the Shepperton branch, started in Jan - Feb 1916. JTL ADD500.JPG Photo taken from the vegetable plot East of the cottage. T1 0-4-4T 6 (Nine Elms 1894) leaving Mortlake on a Waterloo - Waterloo train via Hounslow and Twickenham. Train comprises a 30 ft 6-wheel passenger brake van and 48/50 ft non- corridor bogie coaches. A main line stopping train set is probably standing in for bogie block sets whilst these are being rebuilt as electric units. Conductor rails in place. JTL ADD501.JPG Photo taken from the signalbox. Drummond 700 class 0-6-0 at Mortlake station on an up special train. First coach is a 46’ 6” corridor third or composite built in 1908 for emigrant traffic. The headcode suggests that the train is going to Willesden via Gunnersbury. If so, it should have turned left at Richmond. Conductor rails in place. JTL ADD502.JPG Photo taken from the signalbox. Drummond M7 0-4-4T 674 (Nine Elms 1897) at Mortlake station on a Windsor - Waterloo train, consisting of a 24 ft parcels van and a single 4-coach bogie block set.

rd History of GCR “Barnum” No.228, Open Tourist 3 class Saloon (Rev8 Apr2020) Acknowledgements: Author Clyde E. Pennington, Verifier and contributor John Quick and the many who have made this restoration possible. This 3rd class Open Tourist Saloon was built at G.C.R.’s ‘new’ Carriage & Wagon Works at Dukinfield, Manchester, in 1910/11 to the design of John G. Robinson, Chief Mechanical Engineer (CME). One of 32 built to this basic design within the one year. (3 survive in preservation) G.C.R. Diagram No. was originally 5G1. This changed in June 1926 to 5C8 General Drg. 4096-C Underframe Drg. 3985-C Bogie Drg. 4077-AC LNER code (from 1937c) 5067 Also known as: L.N.E.R. No.5228 and under British Railways - E5228E Note: GCR-RST will use the GCR number 228 and a build date of 1910 so that we, RST, our members and all other readers, have no confusion. Max Height (over water filler) 12’– 11¾”, Height (rail to roof) 12’– 9” Width over body 9’– 0” Length over body 60’– 0” Length over headstock 59’– 11” Length over buffers 63’– 7” Bogie centers 41’– 6” Bogie wheelbase 10’– 6” Tare weight 34ton 10cwt 0q Seating capacity 64 The mainline pre-grouping companies mainly favoured the vacuum brake system, but some, the N.E.R. and G.E.R. for example, used the Westinghouse air brake. All the "Barnum" carriages were originally fitted with both types. This meant that other companies' passenger engines could take over a train of "Barnums" from a G.C.R. -
