Midland Railway poster


Obviously the one in England, not the one in NZ.  Age uncertain but possibly pre-1900. The Midland was incorporated into the LMS in the 1923 grouping. The 300 feet (91 metre) long, 40 feet high Monsal Dale viaduct from 1863 in Derbyshire in the top illustration saw its last trains in 1968 (?) and is now on a rail trail.
