The token system was developed in Britain in the 19th century, to facilitate safe working of single-line railways. If a branch line is a dead end with a simple shuttle train service, then a single token is sufficient. The driver of any train entering the branch line (or occupying any part of it) must be in possession of the token, and no collision with another train is possible. For convenience in passing it from hand to hand, the token was often in the form of a staff, typically 800 mm long and 40 mm diameter, and is referred to as a train staff. Such a staff is usually literally a wooden staff with a brass plate stating the two signal boxes between which it is valid.

 

In UK terminology, this method of working on simple branch lines was originally referred to as One Engine in Steam (OES), and later One Train Working (OTW). However the system was used on long through lines as well; R H Dutton, Chairman of the London and South Western Railway explained in 1876 the slow journey time between Exeter and Plymouth by saying, "the cause of the delay is the stopping at every station on the staff system. That really does cause a great delay because if the staff is not there, the train must stop while a man is sent on a horse to get it [from the other end of the section]"; quoted in Williams.

A 1s/- token with 'WM. Lees Smithfield Market Birmingham' on. Not sure of it's age, however Smithfield Market is long gone demolished in the 1960/70s, now the location of the newer outdoor Bullring markets or thereabouts. This was found in a collection of other random coins/tokens of my grandmothers in West Bromwich, however I'd love more information on this, what it was used for, who is WM Lees, how old it actually might be?

The practice of rationing was practiced in Canada from 1939-1947. Meat was rationed from May 27, 1943 to February 29, 1944 and from September 9, 1945 to March 26, 1947. The second period of meat rationing gave rise to the holed, blue "meat ration" token, a pressed-wood token given as change as one-eighth of a weekly meat ration coupon.

A class 156 waits for the token at Ardlui station on the West Highland line. The blue light flashes once the token is received and the train is cleared to proceed.
