Title: F Clarke collection of railway photographs and negatives
Description:

Most of Clarke's negatives form part of the Maurice Earley collection. They feature railways in Britain, particularly locomotives of the GWR, LNER, LMS and North British Railway, but also include coverage of the LNWR, Caledonian, Glasgow & South Western, Highland, Furness and Lancashire & Yorkshire Railways. There is also a collection of photograph albums, believed to have once been owned by C J L Romanes, which were transferred to the NRM on foundation in 1975 from the Museum of British Transport, Clapham. The albums include prints taken from many of Clarke's negatives and which have been captioned by the photographer, but unfortunately they are not identified by their reference numbers.

 

Clarke's notebook lists his negatives by company and in numerical order.
