Remembering Railfreight design launch.

As a mere youth , I was involved in some of these issues - a brilliant (and quite affordable gesture) - particularly pleased that the Carlisle depot plate of the Fox (John Peel etc) , was adopted as to general issue - we gave the staff member a £50 bonus (1989 remember) and he and the depot were absolutely delighted.

This exhibition was in a not for profit studio off Brick Lane - and was only open for one day. Most of the stuff came from people's drawers and the NRM - so job a good one as they say.
