Description
Five ink sketches, two named, drawn in biro ink, mounted and framed.
The top left sketch, titled "Locomotive Repair" shows a person making repairs to a steam loomotive through the nose access. Rough imagary around him suggests a workshop space.
Below this is the second named image, "Grinding Shop Bicycles". This image shows a person working at a grinding machine. This image is the most detailed of all the sketches.
The other three drawings are along the left side of the page. The top shows two locomotives and men working on them, front on. The middle shows two locomotives, side on, with people working at them. The bottom shows two people working at the bicycle grinding machines.
