York – National Railway Museum (McCorquodale Printers)

And another item in the stores of the National Railway Museum in York.

This was presented in 1980 by the printers, McCorquodale, to the British Railways Board to mark the 150th anniversary of the opening of the Liverpool to Manchester railway service.

There’s a fascinating amount of detail here, this is a railway timetable from the days of Monotype, all before computerised printing…. There’s also a route map, British Railways logo and printing equipment as part of the set-up.
