Sequoia Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Can anybody tell if there is an archive of R M Casserleys railway photographs? Quote
Broithe Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 They seem to be in various locations - there's a list here - http://www.swindonsotherrailway.co.uk/photos.html - that might help in searching for particular ones. Quote

decauville1126 Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Richard doesn't do internet or email. Simply send him a note of your requirements with an sae and he'll search his and his late fathers collections, then advise what is available. Sometimes he'll do a photocopy so you can see what's what. Prices are very reasonable - assuming they are for personal research and not reproduction. He's very helpful, and has produced some absolute gems of irish stuff for me in the past. Quote
Eiretrains Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 A photo by Richard of Abbeyleix, June 1961, appears in Stephen Johnson's 'Lost Railways of Co.Dublin and the South East', perhaps the one you are looking for, it is an exterior shot of the station building viewed from the station forecourt.

jhb171achill Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 I can also confirm that Richard is an extremely helpful gentleman. He has been of great assistance to me in my own researches. Quote

Exactly the picture I am looking for but need an original print or high resolution scan. Thanks. Quote
