Description
Train pass, Specimen Third class, three months, price £5 14s 8d, issued by District & Midland Railways, 1905-1920 For travel between Mark Lane and Southend (LMS), via Fenchurch Street or Mile End. With wording 'D.R./ THIRD' in background.

The pass was originally within a specimen ticket album/folder but the whole album was in a very poor state and most of the example passes in the album were already represented in the museum collections, so just 5 were retained, this being one.
The album came in to museum from LT Commercial Office in 1991 on day book number D: 000381 and was listed as no 19, titled 'Buff folder containing early Specimen Season Tickets'
