Thank you to everyone who visited and also to those of you who volunteered. Moving on rapidly, this weekend sees our diesel running event and, just a week later we have our Peppa and George event. Details of the above may of course be found on our website, as will our Easter Vintage Festival over four days. The latter was staged in 2012 for the first time in many years. Besides all the steam traction engines, we're catering well, I hope you'll agree, for steam rail enthusiasts: not only will we have the Blue ‘King’ in steam, we'll also be welcoming Gervase onto the railway (for which our gratitude to Mike Hart OBE). Just a little later, at the last weekend of April, we'll have our Swithland Steam Gala. This event is really beginning to take shape now. Amongst the locomotive attractions will be the Webb Coal Tank (courtesy of Bahamas Loco Society and the Heritage Lottery Fund) and Alfred and Judy (courtesy of Bodmin & Wenford Railway). Richard Patching We've Done It! - Mountsorrel Railway Reaches the End Of the Line On Saturday February 23rd 2013 the final panels of track were laid along the Mountsorrel branch line to reach the proposed location of the new Mountsorrel Halt at Bond Lane. Over 75 project volunteers turned out to help lay the final panels and we were joined by representatives from Mountsorrel Parish Council and Lafarge. A film crew from Central News were also there filming a news item for Saturday evening's broadcast and their should also be coverage in this week's Loughborough Echo. Last May when we launched our appeal to raise the funds necessary to secure the rail we needed to complete the project, we set ourselves the ambitious tasks of having track laid through to Mountsorrel Halt by February 2013. At the time many doubted that we would Receive the newsletter direct to your inbox!

There is still much to do before the line can open for public trains to operate. Full details will appear in the next issue of ‘Main Line’, due out at the end of this week. Please see our project website www.mountsorrelrailway.org.uk for pictures from the day.

Local people now have a greater say through the planning process about what happens in the area in which they live by preparing a Neighbourhood Plan that sets out policies that meet the need of the community whilst having regard for local, national and EU policies. The aim of this Neighbourhood Plan is to build and learn from previous community engagement and village plans and put forward clear wishes of the community regarding future development.

  • 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.

  • IL Combo Ndx V2
    file IL COMBO v2 for PDF.doc updated 13-12-2006 THE INDUSTRIAL LOCOMOTIVE The Quarterly Journal of THE INDUSTRIAL LOCOMOTIVE SOCIETY COMBINED INDEX of Volumes 1 to 7 1976 – 1996 IL No.1 to No.79 PROVISIONAL EDITION www.industrial-loco.org.uk IL COMBO v2 for PDF.doc updated 13-12-2006 INTRODUCTION and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This “Combo Index” has been assembled by combining the contents of the separate indexes originally created, for each individual volume, over a period of almost 30 years by a number of different people each using different approaches and methods. The first three volume indexes were produced on typewriters, though subsequent issues were produced by computers, and happily digital files had been preserved for these apart from one section of one index. It has therefore been necessary to create digital versions of 3 original indexes using “Optical Character Recognition” (OCR), which has not proved easy due to the relatively poor print, and extremely small text (font) size, of some of the indexes in particular. Thus the OCR results have required extensive proof-reading. Very fortunately, a team of volunteers to assist in the project was recruited from the membership of the Society, and grateful thanks are undoubtedly due to the major players in this exercise – Paul Burkhalter, John Hill, John Hutchings, Frank Jux, John Maddox and Robin Simmonds – with a special thankyou to Russell Wear, current Editor of "IL" and Chairman of the Society, who has both helped and given encouragement to the project in a myraid of different ways. None of this would have been possible but for the efforts of those who compiled the original individual indexes – Frank Jux, Ian Lloyd, (the late) James Lowe, John Scotford, and John Wood – and to the volume index print preparers such as Roger Hateley, who set a new level of presentation which is standing the test of time.

  • Plans Item 02 P 12 0022 29 March 2012
    Item No.2 Application No: P/12/0022/2 Application Outline Date 3rd January 2012 Type: Valid: Applicant: Jelson Ltd Proposal: Site for residential development, with associated access. Location: Land at Halstead Road, Mountsorrel, Leicestershire, Parish: Mountsorrel Ward: Mountsorrel Ward Case Officer: Mr G Smith Tel No: 01509 632521 Description of the Application The application site (15.77 hectares) is located to the north of Halstead Road currently agricultural land of three linked fields, on the western edge of Mountsorrel near the junction with Swithland Lane. The land slopes gently towards the south-west. To the west is the former railway line flanked by mature trees. To the north and north-east is Bond Lane which abuts the Mountsorrel Quarry alongside which runs part of the Leicestershire Round Walk which leaves Mountsorrel towards Charnwood Forrest. Bond Lane is within the Mountsorrel Conservation Area. To the south of the site is the Halstead Road Centenary Pastures which is a Local Nature Reserve (LNR). To the north is Bond Lane which is within the Mountsorrel Conservation area and further north the Mountsorrel Quarry which is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). Planning permission was refused for a similar scheme in 2010. This application seeks to overcome the six reasons detailed later in the report. An indicative layout has been submitted which differs from the previous application. This proposal is for outline planning permission for residential development with access proposed in two positions off Halstead Road. The main access is an additional spur off the round-a-bout at the junction of Halstead Road and Walton Way and a second access road further west nearer to the existing junction with Willow Grove, opposite the Centenary Pastures.

  • Flanagan's Running Club – Issue 46
    Flanagan's Running Club – Issue 46 Introduction The first rule of Flanagan's Running Club is everyone should be telling everyone they know about Flanagan's Running Club! After all, sharing is caring. Details of how to sign up is in the epilogue. There is no need to panic, there is no actual running involved, it is not a running club in that sense. The title is made up from extending the title of my favourite book – Flanagan’s Run by Tom McNab. So, sit back, grab a cup of coffee (or beer or wine or whatever), and enjoy the read. On This Day – 12th April 1937 – Sir Frank Whittle ground-tests the first jet engine designed to power an aircraft, at Rugby, England. 1955 – The polio vaccine, developed by Dr. Jonas Salk, is declared safe and effective. 1981 – The first launch of a Space Shuttle (Columbia) takes place: The STS-1 mission. It’s Children's Day (Bolivia) International Day of Human Space Flight National Redemption Day (Liberia) Thinker, Failure, Solider, Jailer. An Anthology of Great Lives in 365 Days Colonel Albert Bachmann, b. 1929, d. 2011 Colonel Albert Bachmann, who died aged eighty-one was Switzerland’s best known and most paranoid spymaster, in a country that traditionally has no enemies and refrains from foreign entanglements. Moustachioed, pipe-smoking and blessed with an ability to wreak havoc within his own organisation, Bachmann’s resemblance to Inspector Clouseau was striking; by the time his plots and schemes were uncovered by an astonished commission of inquiry, he had reduced the Swiss military intelligence agency, in which he had mysteriously managed to rise to a senior role, to a state bordering on chaos, not to mention bankruptcy.

  • LESOPS 25 Lott Et Al
    2 A Provisional Atlas of the Carabidae of Leicestershire & Rutland Derek Lott, Graham Finch & Gareth Price LESOPS 25 (2011) ISSN 0957 - 1019 A collaborative publication from The Leicestershire & Rutland Environmental Resources Centre and The Leicestershire Entomological Society 3 FOREWORD In the spring of 2009, Derek Lott, Graham Finch & Gareth Price embarked on the production of this atlas. The idea of the atlas was the brainchild of Graham Finch, who had attended a ground beetle training course and became well aware of the need for a VC55 distribution atlas. In July 2009 a very simple first draft was produced. Derek Lott and Graham Finch scrutinized the first draft. A number of important issues needed consideration, such as taxonomic changes, the classification of sites, obtaining accurate grid references and the removal of invalid species records falsely recorded in Leicestershire and Rutland. Derek Lott provided Carabidae context to some sites in the gazetteer as well as providing species context. The production of this atlas was made much easier by the life-long work of Derek Lott, who had already accumulated vast amounts of ground beetle data and local knowledge, without which this atlas would not have been possible. Special thanks go the Carabidae recorders who have sent in records. We have endeavoured to reference and acknowledge the people and sources that have helped in the production of this atlas but often with natural history publications there are too many people to thank over a very long period of time. Our apologies go to the people or sources that have been inadvertently omitted. The gazetteer obtained information from a number of sources, in particular the Flora of Leicestershire (Primavesi & Evans, 1988) and the Flora of Rutland (Messenger, 1971).

    Volume 8 Number 44 GREAT CENTRAL RAILWAY WEEKLY NEWSLETTER November 27 2013 From the General Manager First, congratulations to the Mountsorrel Branch volunteers and the major milestone achieved last Saturday. This saw the first passenger carrying train travel onto the branch. While Steve Cramp, whose leadership has been immense throughout, will point out that there’s still work to be done, last Saturday was a real achievement and special thanks must go also to Andrew Higginson, Eric Smith and Steven Chapple for their efforts in ensuring that everything had been checked out for safety purposes, besides making the operational arrangements for the train. The end of this week will see the submission of the formal bid by GCR (together with National Railway Museum and Leicester City Council, our joint partners) to the Heritage Lottery Fund to develop the proposed museum at Leicester. This is another very significant stage and of course has taken many months of graft by Lili Tabiner to prepare, together with the Focus consultancy team, who have advised us on the bid. The next few days will see copies of our Main Line magazine landing on the doormats of Friends of GC Main Line members. This will contain news on our other mega project, the Bridge to the Future linking us to GCR Nottingham, including the all-important fundraising. Of course, for the most up to date information, on GCR do please visit our website and, especially for members, remember to look for all the extras on Main Line Xtra. Finally, a big thank you to all the volunteers who went to the NEC last weekend to represent GCR at the Warley Model Railway Exhibition.
