TO004: GER Suburban Services pre-Jazz.
Extracts from the Railway Magazine. The text has been re-set and all the original photographs scanned in. First is the GER section from J. F. Gairns' 1907 reminiscences 'London Local Train Services of 35 Years Ago'. Then follows a set of three articles (1907/8) by C. J. Allen 'The Suburban Train Services of the Great Eastern'. Finally come nine assorted snippets from the magazine of the time - including early locos of the London & Blackwall Rly, heroism at Tivetshall and some diary extracts hinting at dodgy business on the part of some of the old ECR directors!
