Carlton Clocks

Description

A good early twentieth century mahogany-cased 8-inch dial fusee railway clock from the London And North Eastern Railway, later re-signed as British Rail (Eastern Region), and numbered 12819.

The case has a round base with pendulum access door, and a hinged side door.

The 8-day fusee timepiece movement by Smiths is stamped with the serial number 18771, with screwed pillars and rectangular plates.

Spun brass bezel.

This clock came to us from a relative of a Signalman and latterly a Signals Inspector on Eastern Region, who believes that the clock was installed in the Thorpe Junction Signal Box outside Norwich.

The movement is overhauled, and guaranteed for 3 years.
