A wagon label from WW2 for the consignment of coal from Lumphinnans Colliery to Faslane ( Naval Port No,1), no doubt for the boilers of ships loading there
.One of a large selection of wagon labels I have that were recovered from a derelict building at the former Faslane Junction, near Shandon, on the West Highland Line (WHL) in 1980.
This building served as the main control office for all arrivals and departures using Faslane Sidings and Faslane Port on the Gareloch.
This was a new piece of railway built in 1941 as a Military Railway using a new connection from the WHL to the above mentioned Faslane Port which by 1941 had been selected as 'Military Port No.1' , so selected as a safe port away from the Luftwaffe. The line was almost 3 miles long and descended steeply to sea level with gradients up to 1 in 49.
The port became fully operational in 1942 and was in Military use until 1946 when Military use of the port ceased.
There was seven exchange sidings at Faslane junction reputed to be able to hold 1000 wagons, however traffic levels were so high that additional sidings were built at Ardmore and Graigendoran on the approach to the WHL and the loop at Helensburgh Upper was extended to accommodate the longer trains on this busy section.
After the end of Military use the line was retained but the former double track section from Faslane Junction to the port was single lined. It saw regular use up to 1983 for trains of scrap metal from the ship breaking activities that the former Military Port was used for. Secretly it was also retained and maintained for strategic use as by this time part of the former Military Port had become Britain's home for the Polaris Nuclear Submarines and at that time rail connections to military installations was still regarded as of major importance. When the Lochside road, the A814, was upgraded in the 1960s the former level crossing at Belmont was replaced with an overbridge.
With the development of the former Shipbreaking area in the mid 1980s for the Trident Missile Submarine base the bridge was removed and new roads were built so ending any chance of the use of rail in a national emergency.
Living locally I was well aware of the 'Faslane Branch' and remember the Class 20 hauled Scrap Trains. The buildings , sidings and branch line were easily accessible to explore down as far as the overbridge and of course not venturing onto the WHL !
One day I was having a good look around the large building at the Junction . It was trashed inside and the glass in all the windows was broken but otherwise a lot of furniture remained as did some railway equipment. Downstairs there was a large room on the floor of which was a huge mound on paper. On closer examination these turned out to be wagon labels obviously removed from all arrivals, then threaded to a long piece of string and stored by hanging from the ceiling. With the passing of the times these had all perished and dropped to the floor forming this large mound. Realising their significance I 'rescued' as many as I could and these are just some of hundreds I have.
They form a time capsule of the activities of the railway during the war and the many locations that were involved in forwarding Coal, goods, mails and weapons etc to Faslane.
Some of the wagon labels show Craigendoran as the destination, some even state Shandon, but in all instances Faslane was the final destination.
With further detective work it would be possible to identify the ships or Convoys the assignments were destined for.

In response to a consignment of Rambling Urchins, I was recently sent an A1 batch of waste paper (thanks, Michael!) including this fascinating postcard which occupied me for a whole evening in happy puzzling.
A tinted photograph printed in Saxony (by collotype I think, there's no trace of a halftone screen) and published by Robert Cogger of Dartford, it depicts Dartford Heath and was sent on 12 October 1905 from Notting Hill to Mr L. Douthwaite at 215 Strand.
The message, written vertically, is in code. I recognised the shapes of the 'Pigpen Cipher' but it did not conform to the usual pattern. This is what occupied the time — eventually I found a variant layout of the grid, which incidentally is the same one used in 'Assassin's Creed II' (thanks, teenage son) and the secret message which could not be risked on an open postcard is:
DEAR LEON IF YOU WRITE BACK WILL YOU WRITE TO THE SHOP.
GERTIE
She made a couple of mistakes, omitting a dot here and there, but the scenario is clear. Leon's attentions are not welcome at home in Notting Hill but the workplace is safe from mother's (or husband's?) prying eyes. I wonder if Gertie ever became Mrs Douthwaite? What was 215 Strand, where Leon worked? (It's a café next to the old Twinings shop now) And why Dartford, was it where Leon lived or had they just had a romantic trip to the Heath?
am bereft since one of my favorite consignment shops is going out of business. they are even selling this mannequin/dress form!!

Last Tuesday a good friend took me around and showed me all her favorite consignment and thrift stores. This is just *some* of the things we found in the consignment shops. It's amazing, you can find virtually brand new, name brand clothing for a fraction of what they cost in retail stores.
