Details of Dukinfield Carriage & Wagon Works Collection
Reference: Dukinfield Carriage & Wagon Works Collection
Title: Dukinfield Carriage & Wagon Works photographic archives
Description:

This collection covers carriages, wagons, road vehicles and locomotives built for the Great Central, NER, LNER and British Railways. There are also portraits of senior staff and a small number of photographs of events. On the closure of the works this archive was evidently incorporated into other works collections and it therefore includes some material unrelated to Dukinfield, such as images of the 1925 Stockton & Darlington Railway Centenary celebrations and railways in the north-east of England.
