I have been trying to collect pre 1901 photos of all the WLWR locos that were passed to the GSWR in 1901.
By trawling the web and searching through the few books on the subject I have in the "library" I have got 38 out of 58 using the list from the loco Magazine (attached).
Does anyone know of pre 1901 photos of the following locos?
4 Sharp Stewart 042
5 Bee SS 042 rebuilt to 060
6 Ant SS 042 rebuilt to 060
17 Faugh-a-Ballagh Kitson 442t
18 Geraldine Kitson 442t
19 Kincora Avonside 042
22 Era Dubs 240
23 Slieve-na-Mon Dubs 240
25 Verbina Vulcan 240
26 Avonside 042
27 Thomond Avonside 042 rebuilt to 044t
32 Dahlia Vulcan 240
33 Avonside 042
35 Duncannon Vulcan 240
39 Shamrock Vulcan 240
40 Vulcan Vulcan 060
43 Knockma Dubs 240
46 Erin-go-Bragh Dubs 060
48 Granston Dubs 240
50 Hercules Dubs 060
The books I have looked in are:- CEJ Fryer The waterford & Limerick Railway (Oakwood), Ernie Sheperd Waterford,Limerick & Western Railway (Ian Allen), JE Kite 1850-1925 Vintage Album (Roundhouse),
JE Kite, Vintage Stean (ian Allan), Clements McMahon O'Rourke Locomotives of the GSWR, Ahrons Locomotive and Train Working in the Latter part of the Nineteenth Century Vol 6.
I am not asking anyone to post or send photos, just a pointer as to where they can be found.
Thanks
Rob
