Have you checked with the Archives Section at the National Railway Museum in York, UK. They have some great researchers there and a long reach. Worth a try if you haven't already done so.

I have a simple request that is utterly beyond my abilities-embarrassingly so. I am trying to find a decent online map of the 1923-1947 British Railways but, search as I might, I can't. I have found innumerable lists of pre-grouping railways and I have found a few individual maps of each of the four post grouping ones. What I cannot find, however, is a map of Britain showing all of the Big 4 at once. If I have to, I'll buy one on good, ol' fashioned paper somewhere but, if there is one on the interwebs, I'd much prefer. Oh, and if I can get greedy-any maps of the proposed but not accepted groupings would be (as a friend of mine used to say) "the ribbon on the cake".
