General notes

Photograph of Atlantic locomotive No 10327, probably taken for publicity in 1914. Formerly Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway, the locomotive became part of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway.

The London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) was a British railway company. It was formed on 1 January 1923 under the Railways Act 1921, which required the grouping of over 120 separate railways into four. The companies merged into the LMS included the London and North Western Railway, the Midland Railway, the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway (which had previously merged with the London and North Western Railway on 1 January 1922), several Scottish railway companies (including the Caledonian Railway), and numerous other, smaller ventures.
