NORTHERN COUNTIES COMMITTEE LOCOMOTIVES AND RAILCARS.

The Northern Counties Committee operated between 1903 and 1948, under the ownership of the Midland Railway and later the LMSR. It was the result of a combination of a number of small railway companies centred on Belfast and the areas to the north and east of it. In 1948 it was absorbed into the UTA.
