The photograph gallery brings together the credited period and preservation images held across the archive, browsable by line, by station, by locomotive class, and by photographer. Every image carries a photographer credit, a capture location, and a year, or is honestly labelled where the photographer is not recorded.
The gallery is being assembled as the archive’s photographs are catalogued and their licences confirmed. Only genuine period photography and clearly-labelled modern preservation photography will appear here. AI-generated railway imagery is never used anywhere on this site.
Do you hold period photographs?
If you have genuine photographs of the network as it was worked, the archive would welcome them. See how to contribute a photograph, including the options to donate, licence, or embargo an image, and the published licensing rate card.
