THE OFFICIAL POSTCARDS
OF THE MIDLAND RAILWAY

As the result of co-operation between the Midland Railway Society and John Alsop, the accepted national authority on railway postcards, we are delighted to be able to bring together virtually all known information about the official pictorial postcards of the Midland Railway. The resulting document includes published and previously unpublished information compiled over many years by John Alsop. Publication through the Midland Railway Study Centre web site makes this information freely available to the public. Also freely available is the archive of cards and images associated with this publication, which can be accessed both digitally though our on-line catalogue and in person via the Midland Railway Study Centre housed in the Museum of Making at Derby's Silk Mill.
