The John Vaughan Collection Gallery

Images from the John Vaughan Collection. We have recently been able to obtain a large selection of images taken by well known photographer John Vaughan. John sold a large amount of his collection many years ago, and from time to time selected images appear for sale. We are happy to say we have saved a good selection of images to enter into the Taunton Trains image archive.
