Many thanks for this info and the links. I'll check them out.

Hi there, many thanks for the reply. I am familiar with the Edmondson ticket as I've produced them for various TV dramas. It seems that finding an image of one from this specific time in place is very unlikely. I can figure out what details to put on it using knowledge of the lines and stops at...

Hi all, I'm a graphic designer in TV and you've very kindly helped me in the past. I hope someone can help me again. I'm working on a drama set in 1868 Dublin, Ireland and need to create a railway ticket for use as a prop. The specific journey details are not important. It's just scripted as a...

Thank you all for your help. I really appreciate it.

Hello, I hope somebody here can help me create a prop for a TV drama set in 1890 London. A character has bought another 'A ticket to the continent'! What could this be? Presuming a train, then a ferry to France. But what would the ticket look like? Perhaps the reality is that somebody would...

Thank-you all for your responses. The image I attached was from the TFL museum online collection but the images aren't good quality. I've followed up with an email. Interesting that they would be made from glass- but this makes sense in the period. 1649768082 This is very useful, thanks.

Hi all. I'm working on a TV production set in 1941 and we need to recreate the exterior of a Tube station. We would like to make one of the attached signs. Does anybody have any material that would help us do this such as high resolution images or technical drawings. I am specifically interested...

Thanks all for your help.

Yep. I'll print it on suitable paper. Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback Taunton. With regards to "For Conditions See Over" I was referencing the ebay items on the above link which are blank on the reverse...

Thank you all once again. I've done a quick mock up. Any pointers would be greatly received. Can anybody tell me what the numbers are at the bottom of the ticket? - circled red in the attached image. Many thanks.

Many thanks all. I feel clear and confident about the task now. I have one last question if I may. Could anybody hazard a guess of the fare for this journey? Mary

Thank you all for your quick and detailed responses. The person in question is a civilian trying to escape the blitz. They are not well off. So although it would have been frown upon to travel, in my experience artistic license wins out over facts on TV shows! Does anybody have a link to...

We don't see the journey. It's just discussed. So they may have to get off and stay somewhere over night? Would they need 2 tickets then? Where would they likely stay over if needed?

Hi all. I'm working on a TV show and need to make a prop ticket. I hope you can help me make this look right. The show is set in 1941. The character is travelling from Euston to Inverness one way. Would this be an LMS issued ticket? Does anyone have any images of tickets from this era that I...
