Wooden notice, North Eastern Railway, "Machinery must not be cleaned while in motion. By order. April 1909"
The railways were bound by rules and these helped keep workers and passengers safe. Signs declared what was allowed, and what would happen if rules were broken. Some of the warning notices are very long and required a good level of literacy to read and apply.
