‘The Stratford Upon Avon & Midland Junction Railway’ (or S.M.J.) was a small independent railway company which ran a line across the empty, untouched centre of England. It visited the counties of Northamptonshire, Warwickshire, Oxfordshire and a little of Buckinghamshire, only existing as the SMJ from 1909 to 1923. In 1923 the S.M.J.became a minor arm of the London Midland and Scottish (L.M.S.), then in 1948 'British Railways' 

Gone but not forgotten: "the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth"

Black & White photos of the SMJ

Hello

My name is Mick Baker and i have recently joined your society.

A friend of mine Nigel Hadlow, has taken several thousand black & white photos

of railways around the country.

With a little help from me with my limited computer skills, i have been able to obtain a telephone number and contact name for various societies and he has been able to contact  them and subsequently post prints and negs.

If the SMJ is interested perhaps you can supply me with contact details ,i would be very grateful.

Regards

Mick Baker
