Great Britain: Bishops Castle Railway Co., £10 share, 1876 over 186-, #626, black, typical English format. The original plan was to build a line from Craven Arms to Montgomery, eventually linking to mid-Wales and Shrewsbury, with a branch line from Lydham to Bishop's Castle. The money ran out half way, so the scheme only ever reached Lydham with engines reversing direction to complete the journey to Bishop's Castle. AEF and scarce.
