2012 ELECTRAIL COLOUR SLIDES LIST 30 Page 3
Page 1 Page 1 ELECTRAIL COLOUR SLIDES List 30 List 30 01/02/12 Electric Railway Society, 17 Catherine Drive, SUTTON COLDFIELD, England, B73 6AX. ELECTRAIL is a range of colour slides depicting tramcars in Britain and overseas, electric trains, and coastal pleasure steamers – especially those that connected with electrified railway routes such as along the Clyde Estuary or along the South Coast of England. The slides are 35mm colour images generally mounted in plastic mounts measuring 2” x 2”. A very few of our earliest views are in card mounts of the same size. It is now becoming difficult to find photographic labs that are capable of producing these copy slides in quite large numbers at a reasonable cost and as a result the stocks of most of the slides contained in this list are becoming low and it will be impossible to obtain more copies of many of them. Where stocks are particularly low this is indicated in the list. UK orders. Please send to address at top of this page. Each slide costs 30p and cheques should be made payable to “Electric Railway Society”. Orders sent to UK addresses are post free. Overseas orders. Slides cost 30p each. The cost of processing cheques drawn on an overseas bank is prohibitive but cheques drawn on a UK bank are accepted. An inexpensive means of payment from the nations using the Euro, the US $, or the Canadian $ is to enclose pay for the order using €, US$ or Can $ currency notes. Please do not use coins since these can go missing in the post. -

PREFACE to 1895 EDITION, OUTLINE of CONTENTS and INDEX to COMPANIES LISTED in 1895 (PDF File
PREFACE TO 1895 EDITION, OUTLINE OF CONTENTS & INDEX TO COMPANIES LISTED IN 1895 By 1895 the Stock Exchange Official Yearbook had settled into a format that it was to stay with for the duration. We reproduce the Preface, Outline of Contents and the Index to companies listed in 1895 to give readers an idea of the typical organisation of a yearbook, and of the great variety of companies covered in this and in future volumes. PREFACE. The year 1894 has not proved so favourable to business as was expected. This is chiefly due to the further considerable decline in the prices of natural products, and to some extent to the difficulty in bringing to a conclusion the tariff and other reforms in the United States to which President Cleveland had put his hand. But the year closes with a nearly complete absence of disturbing causes, though the prices of produce are still at their lowest, and the return to commercial and agricultural prosperity is in all parts of the world proceeding at an abnormally slow rate. But it is generally admitted that the worst is now more than over. This is an immense gain in itself, especially as regards Stock Exchange securities, amongst which selling from fear or necessity no sooner ceases than an upward movement on some scale sets in. A year ago we had to report a further considerable fall in the aggregate of Stock Exchange values; but for 1894 there has been a rise in prices which more than outsets the decline then reported, and to all appearance the upward movement is still in progress. -

2020 Book News Welcome to Our 2020 Book News
2020 Book News Welcome to our 2020 Book News. It’s hard to believe another year has gone by already and what a challenging year it’s been on many fronts. We finally got the Hallmark book launched at Showbus. The Red & White volume is now out on final proof and we hope to have copies available in time for Santa to drop under your tree this Christmas. Sorry this has taken so long but there have been many hurdles to overcome and it’s been a much bigger project than we had anticipated. Several other long term projects that have been stuck behind Red & White are now close to release and you’ll see details of these on the next couple of pages. Whilst mentioning bigger projects and hurdles to overcome, thank you to everyone who has supported my latest charity fund raiser in aid of the Christie Hospital. The Walk for Life challenge saw me trekking across Greater Manchester to 11 cricket grounds, covering over 160 miles in all weathers, and has so far raised almost £6,000 for the Christie. You can read more about this by clicking on the Christie logo on the website or visiting my Just Giving page www.justgiving.com/fundraising/mark-senior-sue-at-60 Please note our new FREEPOST address is shown below, it’s just: FREEPOST MDS BOOK SALES You don’t need to add anything else, there’s no need for a street name or post code. In fact, if you do add something, it will delay the letter or could even mean we don’t get it.
