Notebook, paper with buckram-covered card covers, Notebook of R.M. Fishenden, 10 June 1938 to 2 Sep. 1947. Gives timing details of various journeys long with details of the locomotive and narrative of any unusual events. Journeys include the Golden Arrow, the Lakes Express, the Coronation Scot, the Bournemouth Limited, Bournemouth Belle, various suburban journeys in London and Cambridgeshire, and trips on the SNCF and Belgian Railways. Includes comments critical of the war timetables introduced in 1939, but there are no journeys recorded between 1942 and 1947(possibly because Mr. Fishenden was evacuated?).
