CORONATION. 1937. 40x50 inches. Haycock Press, London. Condition B+: repaired tears in margins, some affecting image; restoration and restored losses in margins. Another scene from England's rail history. Here, the 1831 locomotive "Coronation" is pulling through the countryside, watched by excited onlookers. The 1937 "Coronation" was a streamlined train operating on the London to Edinburgh route. A superior model competing with increased road and air travel, it was designed to be faster, more reliable and more comfortable.
