Tyer and Company


Founded by Edward Tyre in 1850, Tyer and Company of London and Carlisle produced a prodigious amount of mechanical signalling equipment for the railways. This example is at the dockside in Bristol.

There appears to be relatively little information online about what must have been a highly influential operator for many decades. It is a name that crops up regularly at railwayana sales.
