From - PASSENGER SELF HELP TROLLEY MANUAL; British Railways Board, August 1983 (issue 2)
This is quite a charming and unusual little booklet. It's an A5 sized, cardboard covered collection of memos and drawings relating to the sort of galvanised metal and yellow plastic adorned trolley (manufactured by Middlehurst Ltd*) which used to be umbiquitous at railway stations up and down the country. It has six sections viz. -
1. Circulars
2. Code of Practice: Use and Control
3. Maintenance and Repair Procedures
4. Spares: Catalogue Numbers
5. Drawings
6. Repair Monetary Limit: Details
All sections are typed and are quite crudely reproduced. I've not really got very much to say about this one, but it's worth a look nonetheless.
*Remarkably, you can still buy one new!
