Are you researching a locomotive, rolling stock, or possibly one of the many lines in the L&YR system? Discuss your project with our Drawings Officer, Jeff Chappell, and he’ll help identify what drawings and plans are available and how you can obtain copies. And, if we don’t hold the specific item, then he may be able to offer advice on other avenues of research.

Mike Fitton has just taken over the post of Photographic Officer and can assist you if you are looking for a photograph of the of the L&Y, perhaps the station where your ancestor worked or a particular view of a locomotive to help you construct a model.
