Framed Prints From Memory Lane
Framed Print of The Southern Railways chief mechanical engineer Oliver Bulleid (formerly Gresley
The Southern Railways chief mechanical engineer Oliver Bulleid (formerly Gresleys right-hand man on the LNER) introduced his spectacular Merchant Navy class in 1941.
That such a deluxe express design should be built at the height of the war caused adverse criticism. Production was allowed as these were classified as mixed traffic (ie for passenger and freight work).
Roaring through Surbiton at 60mph, No. 21C9 Shaw Savill pulls the longest train ever to leave London Waterloo, in May 1943, proving the Merchant Navies did their bit for the war effort. Shaw Savill is currently dismantled awaiting sale at Ian RileyOs Engineering Works at Bury, East Lancashire Railway.
One of the new Merchant Navy class engines drawing the longest train ever seen from Waterllo Station in London, roaring through Surbiton at around 60 MPH.
