Welcome to the Carriages Virtual Display
The carriage exhibition was first displayed at March 1999 in The Railway Age, Crewe.
The exhibition included text, photographs and some models but as it
was aimed at families it avoided technical discussions. This
virtual display is a further development, without the models but
with a few more photographs. Please roam around it. You do not have
to ‘do’ the display in the order we have suggested;
many links allow you to take your own path.
The railways used many common words in strange ways and so
words with specific railway connotations are flagged with a
green/blue diamond ; you can click on the diamond to
see what the word means and then use your browser’s back button
to return to the exhibition.
