Have just come across reference to photo of privately owned railway wagon
lettered 'Read & Son, Binegar Quarry'. Industrial Railway Record No.82,
'The Newbury Railway', discusses an (unsuccessful) offer made by Read & Son
of Salisbury for Vobster Quarry.
a) Do these two refer to the same Read & Son?
b) Were Read & Son the same as the well known Salisbury coal traders?
Grateful for any help. TYIA.
Rgds,
Ken Snith.
