    RCHS NW GROUP 2015 RAIL TOUR Thursday 17th March 2016 A Circular Tour around Cumbria Lancaster, Barrow, Whitehaven, Carlisle, Shap Summit, Lancaster RCHS NW GROUP 2015 RAIL TOUR Thursday 17th March 2016 A Circular Tour around Cumbria Lancaster, Barrow, Whitehaven, Carlisle, Shap Summit, Lancaster Welcome On behalf of the NW Group committee, welcome to our 2016 Rail Tour. As with last year’s tour we have planned a circular journey but with options for timings to suit individual preferences for the amount of time spent at Whitehaven and Carlisle. Whilst most people will be coming from Manchester, the notes are based around the circular route: Lancaster-Barrow-Whitehaven-Carlisle-WCML-Lancaster. Before describing today’s route, the Notes start with a brief introduction to the alternative proposals for the rail line from Preston and Carlisle that eventually resulted in the West Coast Main Line we are familiar with today. Timings allow for a lunch break in Whitehaven. Alternatively, one can stay on the train taken from Barrow to its destination in Carlisle. This gives flexibility to adapt the tour to personal preferences. Principal timetable options are shown below. Man Pic (dep) 09.16 Preston (arr) 09.57 Preston (dep) 09.58 10.04* Lancaster (arr) 10.14 10.25 Lancaster (dep) 10.25 Barrow (arr) 11.33 Barrow (dep) 11.38* Whitehaven (arr) 13.09 Whitehaven (dep) 13.10 13.56 14.54 Carlisle (arr) 14.28 15.06 16.04 Carlisle (dep) 15.40 16.30 Lancaster (arr) 16.30 17.28 Preston (arr) 16.49 17.47 Preston (dep) 16.50 17.47 Man Pic (arr) 17.29 18.29 *loco hauled Most of the photographs, diagrams and maps are reduced from the original source size and those originally in colour are reproduced in B&W.

  • HOW ARNSIDE BECAME a PIONEER of ECO-TOURISM from 'Westmorland's Port' to a 'Pretty Little Resort Nestling on the Kent Estuary'
    HOW ARNSIDE BECAME A PIONEER OF ECO-TOURISM From 'Westmorland's Port' to a 'Pretty Little Resort Nestling on the Kent Estuary’. STEPHEN CAUNCE & DENNIS BRADBURY THE ORIGINS OF TOURISM Travelling simply as a leisure activity is now a defining feature of contemporary life for most British people. In 2015, 2.6 million people worked in tourism. £54 billion was estimated to have been spent by day visitors within the UK in that year, and a further £24.3 billion was spent by domestic tourists staying away from home. In addition, 36 million foreign tourists also visited this country. Until the late nineteenth century, however, ordinary people mostly stayed within their own native locality for their whole lives. Some specialised craftsmen had traditionally covered long distances on foot when seeking work, simply because they had to, and limited travelling had occurred even in medieval Europe among the upper class, especially those who owned scattered estates. Medieval rulers were almost constantly moving from place to place to show themselves off, provide justice, deal with rebellions and so on, but even for them such journeys were difficult, expensive and dangerous. Hardly anyone toured around simply for entertainment as modern ‘tourists' do, though Chaucer has provided a vivid account of an imaginary pilgrimage to Canterbury, which is probably the nearest equivalent. It is all the more surprising, therefore, that scholars now believe that Arnside Tower seems to have been a rare, precocious medieval example of a sort of tourism, and it is true that it has never made sense either as a fortification or as a dwelling.1 In particular, local small defensive structures such as pele towers and bastles devoted the ground floor to accommodation for livestock, not living quarters as here.

  • Cumbrian Railways Association
    Cumbrian Railways Journal of the Cumbrian Railways Association Index to content of Volumes 1 to 5, 1976 to 1996 This index is a index of titles and general content of the CRA Journal, not a detailed reference index. It is divided into a number of sections: Articles Notes, Letters, Notices, etc. CRA Activities and Events Photographs CRA Members and Friends Reviews Drawings and Graphic Images The distinction between Articles and Notes, etc. is very subjective, largely based on length. Many articles will have been followed in subsequent journals by notes and letters, generally listed under similar titles. Apologies that items under the Notes, etc. heading are not fully sorted. This is, however, a temporary listing which will eventually be replaced by an index running up at least up to the end of Volume 8. Page References Note that volumes 1 to 3 have pages numbered from ‘1’ for each issue. References are therefore given in the form of ‘2/10, 7’ which interprets as Volume 2, issue No 10, page 7. From the commencement of Volume 4 pages are numbered consecutively through the volume so references can be simplified to ‘4, 112-5’ – Volume 4, pages 112 to 115.
