1st image - more than likely an Inspector's workmark
2nd image - C.F. - Cordite, Full Charge. The use of 'cordite' is a little misleading as they were a number of propellants that would warrant a 'C' stamp. The second 'F' shows the case has been reloaded. There is also a third 'F' after 1942, signifying the case had been loaded a third time.
3rd image - Letters within a rectangle almost all ways denotes a repair station. D.G.S. is almost certainly Davis Gas Stoves. I am unaware of the identity of L.N.L. The other lettering is likely to relate to the repair work.
The last letter of the other repair monogram might be a partially stamped E, so LNE for London and North Eastern Railway? (Notwithstanding the fact that the manufacturing monograms were LNEC, LNED and LNER for the various sites).
I'm sure you're right. LNE would be London & North Eastern Railway, Dukinfield. Although LNER was their monogram for manufacturing bombs, I presume it was abbreviated either out of space considerations or Dukinfied was the only LNER site repairing cases.
