The Lizars catalogue uses the title A tour in India and lists 55 slides in one number series without the 'a' suffixes.

The Riley catalogue uses the title India re-visited.

The Wood 1894 catalogue uses the title Northern India, and the set is also mentioned in the 1888 Indispensable handbook under that title, shown as a Wood production in addition to the reference to the York set.
