    1 ROYAL HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF QUEENSLAND JOURNAL Volume XIV, No.1 February 1990 Queensland v. The Commonwealth: The State's Objection to the Australian Standard Garratt Programme by Alan Whiting Presented at a meeting of the Society, 22 June, 1989 The entry of Japan into the Second World War brought massive traffic demands to the government railway system of Queensland (QGR). As a partial resolution to those demands the Commonwealth resolved to construct a number of locomotives for use on some of the narrow (3'6") gauge rail systems, including the QGR. That locomotive type became known as the Australian Standard Garratt (ASG), a name that even now, almost fifty years later evokes acrimonious memories in some circles. The ASG project ultimately cost Australia dearly, not only in the direct losses of millions of pounds of public funds but more importantly in the waste of thousands of tons of fabricated metal, and countless hours of added congestion to valuable workshop resources and, worse still, to overcrowded lines, which became so vital to the defence of Australia. The ASG's most outstanding feature was controversy and what this paper examines is not the public controversy that resulted after the locomotive had proved itself as an horrendous and indeed dangerous mechanical failure, but the bitter, relatively private dispute that raged between the Commonwealth and Queensland primarily before and during the construction of the machine. Essentially, that contest was over who, as between the Commonwealth and the State, had the right to determine how the QGR as the State's largest enterprise was to be managed, as it was Alan Whiting, BA, LLB, is a solicitor who has extensively researched the role of Queensland Railways during World War II and pubUshed Engine of Destruction.

    Railway locomotive and rollingstock drawings Research Guide to Railway locomotive and rollingstock drawings records at Queensland State Archives Research Guide to Railway Locomotive and Rollingstock Drawings Records This research guide provides an overview of the drawings produced by or for the Chief Mechanical Engineer’s Branch (or Locomotive Branch) of the Railway Department. The drawings are available on microfilm at Queensland State Archives (QSA). These railway drawings trace the development of Queensland railway locomotive and rollingstock from 1864. Most of the drawings consist of general arrangement and working drawings for the construction of rollingstock. The QSA references for these records are in the Queensland State Archives’ catalogue. Note: QSA does not hold all drawings proposed for or adopted by Queensland Rail (QR). Queensland Rail Heritage Collection The Queensland Rail Heritage Collection consists of 72 series of records transferred to Queensland State Archives from the Workshops Rail Museum, Ipswich, in 2019. The QRHS spans the years 1864 to 2007. All the records are open. These holdings give us a glimpse into Queensland’s past with railway brass bands, railway refreshment rooms and clock repair registers. There are many treasures in the plans, drawings, photographs and audio-visual material. A search of our catalogue using the keywords - Queensland Rail Heritage Collection - will find all the series of records including hyperlinks to descriptions. Interested researchers are welcome to visit Queensland State Archives to request and view the records. Each series has a Queensland Rail/Queensland Museum catalogue number.

At Bayland Park Community Center. The Meeting starts at 7:00 pm. Program - The Railroads of Longleaf Louisiana by Everett Luck San Jac Trip to the Texas State Railroad A Ride on the Texas State Railroad Mark Couvillion We started our trip on a comfortable morning that promised a day of rain. The bus arrived on time and we only had to stop once to pick up a few stragglers. The route to Palestine seemed to be intended to get our train juices flowing, as we followed many back roads that seemed to parallel railroad tracks. We never saw a train, or even a single car in a siding or spur, on the entire trip. The weather deteriorated as we got closer to Palestine, with the most rain falling just as the bus stopped at the depot! The temperature had dropped noticeably, but the 33 deter - mined souls on the bus made a run for the depot. We quickly learned that our train would be pulled by #7, a 1947 Alco RS-2 in Black Widow Livery. Something was amiss with the steam engine scheduled to pull our train. Oh well, a first-generation Alco diesel is almost a steam en - gine, and in that paint scheme! The passengers huddled in the depot, trying to find a warm spot, as the station and all of the facilities are de - signed for warm-weather excursions.

  • Derby Locomotive Drawings List.Xlsx
    Derby Locomotive Drawing Lists Description: The collection consists of approximately 6000 drawings, plus 135 registers and lists. They cover the period from 1874 to 1961. The drawings relate to the construction, modification and rebuilding of locomotives of the Midland Railway, London Midland & Scottish Railway and British Railways, with occasional drawings from other railway companies and contractors. The drawings are mainly on linen with some blueprints, as well as Ozalid and paper copies. Each drawing has a number and/ or a letter code. These letter and number codes also relate to the registers, schedules and lists. The significance of these codes is explained in the ‘System of Arrangement’ section below. System of Arrangement: The drawings are arranged in the archive in five series and are listed as such in the catalogue. 1. Main Series. These are organised by drawing number in numerical sequence. Most drawings have a two number date prefix that usually relates to the year in which the drawing was produced, but may sometimes relate to the year the drawing was entered in the register. 2. D Numerical series. These are also organised by drawing number, but prefixed by the section reference, such as D1, D2, D3, D4 or D5. 3. Diagrams and Sketches. These are also organised by drawing number, but prefixed according to the section reference code, such as DS, DD, S, D or ED. 4. BR Standard Drawings from Derby. These drawings are proper to the main collection of British Rail Standard Drawings, but were found with the main Derby Works sequences. They are numerical with the prefix SL/DE.

  • The First Garratt Locomotive in the Netherlands
    The first Garratt locomotive in the Netherlands By H. Brunner ME Translation ©2015 by René F. Vink, Netherlands In this article1 the reasons are mentioned that made the Limburg Tramway Co Ltd decide to purchase a "Garratt" locomotive. Furthermore a description is given of the acquired locomotive. General. In December 1931 a "Garratt" locomotive of 71.5 t [70.4 long ton] service weight was putinto service by the Limburg Tramway Co Ltd on her 26 km [16 mi] long line Maastricht-Vaals (fig. 1). Fig. 1. The Garratt locomotive In 1909 the Australian H.W. Garratt († 1913) obtained the patents on his engine type, with which the boiler was freely and completely accessible located on a frame that rested with pivots on a bogie each of which contained a separate locomotive engine. By locating the supply bunkers for water and coal on the bogie units, he diminished the tendency of the latter to rotate around their horizontal centers of gravitation at higher speeds as a consequence of the not fully counter balanced reciprocating masses of the components of the motion. Thus they contribute to the riding stability of the locomotive. He could increase the evaporative ability of the boiler almost at will because the dimensions of the boiler, the fire grate and the ash pan were no longer restricted by the tight dimensions and unfavourable restrictions of coupled wheels and water tanks. 1 This is a translation of the article that appeared in issue 35 of the Dutch magazine "De Ingenieur" (The Mechanical Engineer) in 1932. Some considerations apply to this translation - I followed the UK English spelling.
