Twenty years ago whilst sorting out my late father-in-law's railway bits I came across a few photo albums with 2 3/4" x 4 1/2" b+w prints, presumably from a long deceased MMRS member. They were duly filed and forgotten about until now.
Subjects are various, mostly LMS, LNER and GWR locos but most have faded badly and will need a fair bit of "processing" to be presentable.
However, there are a some which are useable as they are and I have put some up here as hopefully will be of interest.
I think these are all dated 28th June 1938 and are of Whitby (bar the first which is Saltburn, 2nd July 1938).
The builders of big Geordie Tanks may also find something here.
Captions are from details on the back of the prints. No doubt you will soon put me right if they are not.....

Coaling with crane and iron skips

As I have too many images for one post, part two will follow shortly....
