Tomlinson was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant on 15 July, 1899.

Tomlinson was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant-Commander on 15 July, 1907.

There is a curious lapse or an amazing last appointment in his service record being as an Inspector of Steel on the Inspection Staff at Woolwich, dated 14 January, 1908.
