List of Stamps (contained in lists or catalogues), which I do not accept as railway thematic or topical

There are stamps, which are counted as railway thematic (topical) stamps in catalogues and lists (in "Collect Railways on Stamps" of Stanley Gibbons too), but will be rejected by me after intensive investigation or proof of an enlargement.

Should I be in error, I would really appreciate to get detailed information, which disprove me.

I will use an own numbering system, which I use in my investigation list. The catalogue numbers of other catalogues are only quoted in the detailed research pages..

You can get an enlarged picture of the stamp, if you click on the little picture. You will find an detailed description (at the moment only in German), if you click on the blue numbers. Within the description pages you can go forward and backwards if you click on the arrow.
