Appendix 11 Export of local produce and natural resources Appendix 12 Railways come to North Craven Acknowledgements INTRODUCTION ________________________________________________________________________________________________ The aim of this Directory is to bring together into a comprehensive listing as many of the numerous and varied resource materials relating to the Settle–Carlisle railway as possible. For over one hundred and fifty years, since the line was first envisaged by the Midland Railway (MR) in the 1860s, the Settle-Carlisle route has captured the imagination of the travelling public, railway buffs and those with a quest for romance and adventure. The writer of Ecclesiastes in the Old Testament may have complained1 that ‘of making many books there is no end’: the same could certainly be said of the Settle-Carlisle line. Today we would want to include video recordings, DVDs and a multitude of other artistic efforts as well. Those seeking further information on what is arguably the most famous scenic line in England are spoilt for choice with regard to both the range and number of published resources. Some attempt has been made to categorise the various items available under the headings used for Sections A – M. Beginning with the primary sources, one will find that this material is generally officially archived and stored in the various Record Offices and may conveniently be inspected there. The locations of such material relating to the line are listed in Section A. Relevant published written material is listed in Section B. Bibliographic details are given for each publication tpgether with a bried synopsis and critical appraisal where the material has been examined. Prices, where stated, are the publishers’ recommended retail prices at the time of publication. It will be appreciated that many publications and items listed are, alas, out of print or no longer available, although second-hand copies do appear from time to time and are worth searching for. The prices of these vary tremendously, depending on their nature, condition and rarity, and not least the source from which copies are obtained. It has not been practicable to indicate which publications are currently either in or out of print, but with the advent of the Internet it is now very much easier to trace obscure or out-of-print copies than it used to be. Illustrations in published works are in black-and-white unless otherwise stated. Various items are included which, although they do not relate solely to it, help to provide a broader appreciation of the Settle-Carlisle route because they concern adjacent lines or associated enterprises. For example, many references are to be found to the ‘Little’ North Western Railway of the 1840s which pre-dated the Settle-Carlisle by thirty years and to the link which the Midland made with the North Eastern Railway by way of the Hawes branch. Similarly, it would seem churlish to omit all reference to the so-called ‘Waverley’ route because of its intimate relationship with the Settle-Carlisle. The adoption of a 3-star convention for the items in Section B should go some way to help identify the relevance of each source to the Settle-Carlisle line per se. The Appendices bring together a great deal of basic information about the line, providing an immediate source of reference. To the frustration of the serious researcher, it will soon be appreciated that so-called authoritative sources differ markedly in the information they communicate. Contradictory ‘factual’ information is rife and so in these Appendices an attempt has been made to present information which is as accurate and reliable as possible, usually stating the sources from which the information has been obtained or where information found in other sources differs significantly from what is listed here. Errors will undoubtedly still persist and users are urged to inform the Association of any errors or new sources which may be added to the Directory in the future. A. PRIMARY SOURCES 1.

  • Britain's Transition from Rail to Road-Based Food Distribution, 1919-1975 Thomas James Spain MA
    ‘Food Miles’: Britain’s Transition from Rail to Road-based Food Distribution, 1919-1975 Thomas James Spain MA Doctor of Philosophy University of York Railway Studies September 2016 Abstract Britain’s railways were essential for the development of the British economy throughout the nineteenth century; however, by 1919 their seemingly unassailable position as goods carriers was about to be eroded by the lorry. The railway strike of September 1919 had presented traders with an opportunity to observe the capabilities of road haulage, but there is no study which focuses on the process of modal shift in goods distribution from the trader’s perspective. This thesis therefore marks an important departure from the existing literature by placing goods transport into its working context. The importance of food as an everyday essential commodity adds a further dimension to the status of goods transport within Britain’s supply chain, particularly when the fragility of food products means that minimising the impact of distance, time and spoilage before consumption is vital in ensuring effective and practical logistical solutions. These are considered in a series of four case studies on specific food commodities and retail distribution, which also hypothesise that the modal shift from rail to road reflected the changing character of transport demand between 1919 and 1975. Consequently, this thesis explores the notion that the centre of governance over the supply chain transferred between food producers, manufacturers, government and chain retailer, thereby driving changes in transport technology and practice. This thesis uses archival material to provide a qualitative study into the food industry’s relationship with transport where the case studies incorporate supply chain analyses to permit an exploration of how changes in structure might have influenced the modal shift from rail to road distribution.

  • Folk Song in Cumbria: a Distinctive Regional
    FOLK SONG IN CUMBRIA: A DISTINCTIVE REGIONAL REPERTOIRE? A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Susan Margaret Allan, MA (Lancaster), BEd (London) University of Lancaster, November 2016 ABSTRACT One of the lacunae of traditional music scholarship in England has been the lack of systematic study of folk song and its performance in discrete geographical areas. This thesis endeavours to address this gap in knowledge for one region through a study of Cumbrian folk song and its performance over the past two hundred years. Although primarily a social history of popular culture, with some elements of ethnography and a little musicology, it is also a participant-observer study from the personal perspective of one who has performed and collected Cumbrian folk songs for some forty years. The principal task has been to research and present the folk songs known to have been published or performed in Cumbria since circa 1900, designated as the Cumbrian Folk Song Corpus: a body of 515 songs from 1010 different sources, including manuscripts, print, recordings and broadcasts. The thesis begins with the history of the best-known Cumbrian folk song, ‘D’Ye Ken John Peel’ from its date of composition around 1830 through to the late twentieth century. From this narrative the main themes of the thesis are drawn out: the problem of defining ‘folk song’, given its eclectic nature; the role of the various collectors, mediators and performers of folk songs over the years, including myself; the range of different contexts in which the songs have been performed, and by whom; the vexed questions of ‘authenticity’ and ‘invented tradition’, and the extent to which this repertoire is a distinctive regional one.

  • Railways List
    A guide and list to a collection of Historic Railway Documents www.railarchive.org.uk to e mail click here December 2017 1 Since July 1971, this private collection of printed railway documents from pre grouping and pre nationalisation railway companies based in the UK; has sought to expand it‟s collection with the aim of obtaining a printed sample from each independent railway company which operated (or obtained it‟s act of parliament and started construction). There were over 1,500 such companies and to date the Rail Archive has sourced samples from over 800 of these companies. Early in 2001 the collection needed to be assessed for insurance purposes to identify a suitable premium. The premium cost was significant enough to warrant a more secure and sustainable future for the collection. In 2002 The Rail Archive was set up with the following objectives: secure an on-going future for the collection in a public institution reduce the insurance premium continue to add to the collection add a private collection of railway photographs from 1970‟s onwards provide a public access facility promote the collection ensure that the collection remains together in perpetuity where practical ensure that sufficient finances were in place to achieve to above objectives The archive is now retained by The Bodleian Library in Oxford to deliver the above objectives. This guide which gives details of paperwork in the collection and a list of railway companies from which material is wanted. The aim is to collect an item of printed paperwork from each UK railway company ever opened.

Haworth 2 From the Chair As we are aware, the new Northern franchise will commence in early 2016, and the consultation process has begun.The Government has decided to keep the two separate franchises with Trans Pennine Express offering the express services in the region. They are also looking to transfer into the Northern franchise some services operated by another franchise and these include the Oxenhlme – Windermere service. Consultations such as these can be seen as either a challenge or a threat and in our response RVR will use this opportunity to seek for enhancement of services, rolling stock, connectivity and station facilities. The document can be found at: www.gov.uk/government/consultation/future-of-northern-transpennine-express-rail-franchise We have seen changes in staff on the line with John Ryan replacing Stephen Curry as our Station Manager,and we hope to meet him shortly at one of our RVR meetings. I had the pleasure of travelling on the 25th Anniversary Train from Leeds to Carlisle on Friday 11th April to celebrate the saving of the Settle to Carlisle Line. It was a superbly organized event with a packed train enjoying the scenery. Full details later in the magazine.
