No lockable fork on this model as that's more of a Superbe feature. Here's a link to the 1951 catalogue page describing the RRA:

On the headbadge, one of the oddities of this frame is that the headtube doesn't have the characteristic three rivet holes for a Raleigh heron headbadge. No holes at all, in fact.
And, yes, those bars are modern 3ttt variants that Kurt tracked down in his LBS. They are nearly flat, just a couple of degrees of rise or drop, and with my creaky neck, I'm trying them on the rise. I did go with a period brass-fronted trigger, however!
