The Limbo Connection's photos with the keyword: British Rail

To get UK residents ready for the change to decimal currency in 1971, things were marked in both old and new money for some months prior to 15th February. This photograph of a railway ticket issued in January 1970 placed on top of the front cover of a 'Nova' magazine of slightly later date was made during May, 2014 with a Micro-Nikkor 55mm f/3.5 AI lens on a Nikon D50 camera. It always looked a bit 'dirty' because of reflection and degradation, and so I used the Paintbrush programme to improve the colour and contrast.

This label dates from the late 1960s when British Rail provided a service to collect your luggage ahead of your journey and deliver it to your house shortly after you had arrived. The service cost a little extra on your fare, yet it was cheap at the price. Fujifilm FinePix S3 Pro + AF-S Nikkor 35mm f/1.8 G DX lens.
