I like collecting TOC memorabilia and would like to obtain some wallets branded for specific TOCs. I only have National Rail wallets because that is all my local station will issue (Northern Rail don't have their own branded wallets).

I would like them for any UK (or even foreign) TOC!

Will the TOCs post me one? Or does anyone know where I can buy one or a bundle of different ones?

Thanks for any help, it is much appreciated!

There was a thread on here recently where people had spares. Haven't got time to search for it, although I bet someone else will!

Yes, I have just found that thread actually but it's from March so might not be appropriate to drag up :lol:

I have just bought a sizable bundle off ebay with Virgin, South West Trains, Southeastern, Birmingham New Street (<D) and others

I now have over 80 unique plastic or leather train ticket wallets I have collected over the last couple of years. All post-privitatison. I reckon I've spent about £100 on them.

I haven't itemised them all yet, but I can tell you I've got some very, very rare ones such as Arriva Trains Merseyside and Stagecoach Rail.

Best place to look is eBay, (but I usually have a bid on everything there, price doesn't usually put me off!). Next place is to ask my colleagues (I work on the railway) if they have anything from their early career days.

I did see that bundle as well, I was interested in the BHM ticket wallet as I've got the others, but realised that just asking Network Rail, they would send one out :)

I've got an old Metro one from my daughter's school bus pass. She's got a Keighley & District Transport one now. You can have that if you want. It's the lurid yellow-green one WYPTE gives out for MetroCards or season tickets bought at stations in WY.

One thing about that colour is that you'll always be able to see where you left it. On the other hand the railcard has been left behind a few times...
