Royal train at Lowstock Junction, 1913.
My Great-grandfather once drove the pilot locomotive when Queen Victoria travelled on the Midland Railway. is there a chance that records held in the NRM archive will have details of Royal Train arrangements from so long ago?
Hello John,
We don’t have staff listings, railway company staff records are generally held at the National Archives.
We do have an archive of material related to Royal Train arrangements. There is a listing here: http://www.nrm.org.uk/~/media/Files/NRM/PDF/archiveslists2012/other/Royal%20Trains%20archive%20list.pdf
