BeeSee: the more I look at your great scan of the New Brunswick Scott#6 1 cent locomotive stamp (page 4 of this thread) the more I tend to agree with you re it being your favourite. I came across information that said of all the railway items on stamps in the world this was the first (issued in May, 1860). |

If postal stationery counts, I can show a few of those items with trains thereupon. |

Marius: great set of train stamps. I used my ipad to blow them up and viewed them individually while I was having my morning coffee. It inspired me to check my collection for train stamps as a winter project. |

Those Norway stamps are nice.
I wonder if they are narrow gauge or what? I am not familiar with Norway history except for the Vikings. Have to research. |
