This is a copy of a map produced by British Railways in 1948 showing the route availability of locomotives over the whole of the Eastern Region. It extends from London to the south bank of the Humber, and depicts the ER lines across to Sheffield, Leeds, Manchester and Liverpool. There are enlarged inserts of the London and Manchester areas.

For a full list of the RA number of each locomotive class, and for a description of which additional classes were allowed on specific lines, you will need file TW041 (the 1952 BR(E) timetabling compendium).

The original of this map is a large drawing, almost A0 in size. The file here is intended for viewing on a screen, zooming in on a chosen portion to say 75% or 100%. It could be printed out on to an A4 sheet of paper, but much of the detail would be too small to see. If you wish for the full-size printed version, you should order D01.CD instead - as well as this viewing file it contains a much larger file suitable to take to a printer's local to you.
