LONDON : gnblisbeb bp tbe Institufion 1913. Price One Shilling and Sixpence net. Downloaded from jil.sagepub.com at UNIV OF VIRGINIA on June 4, 2016 PAPER No. 19. Some French Train Services and Locomotive Performances. BY C. F. BURTT, Member, Lewes. In presenting this paper before the Institution, the author wishes to emphasisc the fact that it has not been written with a i.iew of criticising French practice-as that may be well left to the discussion-but with the idea 'ot bringing to the notice of the meeting the actual practice prevailing on the railways under consideration. To draw comparisons of the methods that prevail in one country with that of another is, in the opinion of the writer, hardly compatible with reason or justice, as the customs and requirements of one nation are frequently so entirely different from that of others. France is served by six great railway systems, each accommodating a \veil defined area which their names indi- cate; the Nord, Est, hlidi, Paris Lyon et M&ditterranCe, Paris a Orleans, and the Etat, tvhich latter serves a district situated between I3orde;iux in the west and Dieppe in the north. France is perhaps unique to the extent that being a country largely devoted to agricultural pursuits, it has few really very large towns besides Paris, Lille, Lyon, Mar- seille, Bordeaux and Nantes, and these are situated many miles apart, and in no instance excepting Bordeaux and Nantes do any two lincs serve the same district or even town of any importance from a competitive point of view.

  • Chemins De Fer Orientaux 1867-1883 Prelude 2 of 20
    ORIENT EXPRESS 1 OF 10 Prelude Chemins de fer Orientaux 1867-1883 PRELUDE 2 OF 20 Prelude 1867-1883 The genesis of the Orient Express — a direct luxury train service between Paris and Constantinople — cannot be attributed to a single person or organization. Several historical developments coincided. After a train trip through Europe, Sultan Abdülaziz decided that Constantinople should be linked to the West by rail. This plan was carried out by Baron Maurice de Hirsch and his Chemins de fer Orientaux. Meanwhile in the US, George Pullman developed the luxury sleeper car that enabled overnight train travel. The Belgian Georges Nagelmackers introduced this concept in Europe. Requirements Still, not all the requirements had been fulfilled. A consultative body was needed to make the highly fragmented European railway companies work together. The first International Timetable Conference took place in 1872, the same year that Nagelmackers introduced his first Wagons-Lits and the first train entered Constantinople. But it would take over 10 years before the Orient Express could be launched. PRELUDE 3 VAN 20 Constantinople and the Bosporus 1862 A journey to Constantinople over the Mediterranean or via the Danube and Black Sea took at least one week. PRELUDE 4 OF 20 The Sultan's tour 1867 In 1867 Abdülaziz was the first Ottoman sultan to travel through Europe. He visited the Paris World Exhibition, was received with ceremony in London and visited Brussels, Berlin and Vienna on his way. He mostly traveled in his own imperial railway carriage. For centuries, the Ottoman Empire had been a closed bastion. From 1840 onwards sultan Abdülmecid carried through reforms.

  • European Train Names: a Historic Outline Christian Weyers
    ONOMÀSTICA BIBLIOTECA TÈCNICA DE POLÍTICA LINGÜÍSTICA European Train Names: a Historic Outline* Christian Weyers DOI: 10.2436/15.8040.01.201 Abstract This paper gives a first overview of the onomastic category of train names, searches to classify the corpus and reviews different stages of their productivity. Apart from geographical names (toponyms, choronyms, compass directions) generally indicating points of origin and destination of the trains in question, a considerable number of personal names have entered this category, of classical literary authors, musicians and scientists, but also of many fictional or non-fictional characters taken from literature or legendary traditions. In some cases also certain symbolic attributes of these persons and finally even heraldic figures have given their names to trains. In terms of their functionality, train names originally were an indicator of exclusiveness and high grade of travel quality, but they developed gradually, as they dispersed over the European continent, into a rather unspecific, generalized appellation, also for regional and local trains. After two periods of prosperity after 1950, the privatisation of railway companies starting in the 1990s had again a very positive effect on the category, as the number of named trains initially reached a new record in this decade. ***** The first train names appeared in England in the 1860s in addition to names for steam locomotives, and on two different levels. The Special Scotch Express between London King’s Cross and Edinburgh (inaugurated in 1862) was called by the public The Flying Scotsman from the 1870s, but it succeeded as the official name not before 1924. Also the names of the German diesel trainsets Der Fliegende Hamburger and Der Fliegende Kölner were colloquial name creations, as were the Train Bleu and the Settebello operated from 1922 and 1953 but officially named in 1947 and 1958, respectively.
