Railton

This photograph was taken at the Northern Classic Car Show in the Belle Vue Exhibition Halls in Manchester in September 1986.
It's on the Railton Owners Club's stand and the brochure of the event said this about the car:

'The Railton was a successful combination of American power and English coachwork, It was based on the 8 cylinder Hudson chassis and the example shown is fitted with the popular Fairmile drophead coupe body.'

The Railton Straight Eight was produced between 1933 and 1940 - this is a 1935 car and has a 4,168cc engine.
