About the Item

To see more, scroll down to "More from this Seller" and below it click on "See all from this Seller." Leslie Carr (1891 - 1969) "Large Atlantic" 1440 Great Northern Railway (1910) Pen and ink 19 x 41 cm Signed and dated lower right. The Great Northern Railway (GNR) was a British railway company incorporated in 1846 with the object of building a line from London to York. Although many local lines have been closed, much of the network remains active today. The C1 Large Atlantic was designed by Henry Ivatt as an enlarged version of the LNER C2 class. Eighty were built at the Doncaster works between 1904-1908. Superseded on the heaviest trains by the Gresley A1 Pacifics, they nonetheless managed to substitute for failed Pacifics on many occasions. On one occasion an Atlantic rescued a Flying Scotsman service at Peterborough and not only made up the lost time but arrived early. Withdrawn from service 1944-50, one remains preserved in the National Collection; number 251. Leslie Carr was a painter and poster designer from London. He served in the Tank Corps in the First World War and then became a professional artist, mainly producing maritime and architectural scenes. He designed posters for Southern Railway, the London and North Eastern Railway, and British Railways (among others). Carr served as a fireman in the Second World War and was a part of several firemen artists' exhibitions. Carr was a member of the Society of Marine Artists.
