Milepost 30½ 182 October 2009 The Chairman’s Christmas Challenge One Saturday during the currency of the 2009 summer timetable I set out for a day’s train timing. • I parked up at Bristol Temple Meads at the start of my day out at about 07.30 hrs • I arrived back at Temple Meads 12hrs and 13 minutes after I left it. • During the course of the day I travelled, using the RPS distance charts, 610.48 miles • I changed trains 5 times • I never changed trains twice at the same place • The shortest leg of my journey was the first, and the last was the longest • Each train that I used comprised a different class of rolling stock • Two of the trains I used were electric • One of the trains provided was less than 12 months old • Three of the trains I used reached 125 mph during the course of their journeys • I covered three sections of line three times but no others more than twice. Only one of the runs covered all three of these sections • I passed through one station twice travelling in the same direction but journeying in opposite directions • None of the trains I used reversed direction of travel while I was travelling on them • I did not travel on any train throughout between the starting and terminating destinations of that service • On only one service did I alight at the first stop after boarding it. Where did I go? There is a free year’s membership available to the first person who correctly answers the following questions;- • What was my itinerary and routing for the day? • What type of rolling stock was provided for each leg? • Which were the three sections of line that I traversed 3 times during the course of the day? • Which was the station I passed through twice in the same direction while journeying in the opposite direction? • Which was the service I alighted from at its first stop after I boarded it? • Was I late or early arriving back at Bristol against the Public Timetable and by how much?

  • Metro-Cammell Diesel-Electric Pullman Trains by R
    Metro-Cammell Diesel-Electric Pullman Trains By R. P. Bradley On 24 June 1960 a demonstration run of BR's diesel-electric Pullman train took place between Marylebone and High Wycombe. The six and eight-car trains were designed and built by the Metropolitan-Cammell Carriage & Wagon Co. for the Pullman Car Company, to be operated on the LMR and WR respectively. The Railway Gazette used an interesting phrase as it reported the new arrivals; "The term de-luxe applied by the British Transport Commission to the new diesel- electric Pullman multiple- unit trains which begin operations shortly in the London Midland and Western Regions of British Railways suggests an over-abundance of rare but desirable qualities which are not necessary for life." The British Transport Commission’s Press Release for 23rd June 1960 described them as: “These 90 mph de-luxe diesel expresses - there are five of them altogether-are of an entirely new type designed to bring a fresh conception of main-line railway passenger travel to Britain, with superior standards of comfort, and a personal service of' meals and refreshments for all passengers.” A brief look at the internal appointments of these trains certainly lends weight to those ideas. One of the 8-car Western Region units on the Bristol Pullman. The reasoning behind the introduction of these units was basically to attract the businessman to rail travel; or perhaps to return to rail travel, for BR had by 1960 to be on a competitive footing with air transport. The new Metro- Cammell pullmans were prestigious trains, and turned out in a striking blue and white livery.

  • 2021 Book News Welcome to Our 2021 Book News
    2021 Book News Welcome to our 2021 Book News. As we come towards the end of a very strange year we hope that you’ve managed to get this far relatively unscathed. It’s been a very challenging time for us all and we’re just relieved that, so far, we’re mostly all in one piece. While we were closed over lockdown, Mark took on the challenge of digitalising some of Venture’s back catalogue producing over 20 downloadable books of some of our most popular titles. Thanks to the kind donations of our customers we managed to raise over £3000 for The Christie which was then matched pound for pound by a very good friend taking the total to almost £7000. There is still time to donate and download these books, just click on the downloads page on our website for the full list. We’re still operating with reduced numbers in the building at any one time. We’ve re-organised our schedules for packers and office staff to enable us to get orders out as fast as we can, but we’re also relying on carriers and suppliers. Many of the publishers whose titles we stock are small societies or one-man operations so please be aware of the longer lead times when placing orders for Christmas presents. The last posting dates for Christmas are listed on page 63 along with all the updates in light of the current Covid situation and also the impending Brexit deadline. In particular, please note the change to our order and payment processing which was introduced on 1st July 2020.

Photo by Andrew Tucker. MODERNISATION TO PRIVATISATION, 1968 - 1997 by John Chalcraft – 8 May On the 8th May we once more welcomed John Chalcraft as our speaker. John has for many years published railway photographs and is well known for his knowledge on topics relating to our hobby. He began by informing us that there were now some 26,000 photographs on his website! From these, he had compiled a presentation entitled 'From Modernisation to Privatisation', covering a 30-year period from 1968 (the year of the Fraternity's founding) until 1997. His talk was accompanied by a couple of hundred illustrations, all of very high quality, which formed a most comprehensive review of the railway scene during a period when the railways of this country were subjected to great changes. We started with a few photos of the last steam locomotives at work on BR and then were treated to a review of the new motive power that appeared in the 20 years or so from the Modernisation Plan of 1955. John managed to illustrate nearly every class of diesel and electric locomotive that saw service in this period, from the diminutive '03' shunter up to the Class '56' 3,250 hp heavy freight locomotive - a total of over 50 types.

She is seen departing Corfe Castle on Saturday 13th October, during a short spell of sunshine. In the main, weather during the Gala wasn't that brilliant. Colin Stone Visiting the SR courtesy of Ian Riley Engineering, and undoubted star of the Gala was "Black 5" No 44871. In this shot she is departing Corfe Castle with the demonstration Freight Train. Usually these freights contribute nothing to the railway's coffers, but on this occasion brake van rides were on offer at £5 per head. Hence as the time table "slipped" these "paying" services couldn't be dropped to allow a bit of catch up. Colin Stone WIMBORNE RAILWAY SOCIETY COMMITTEE.

  • The Evolution of British Railways 1909-2009
    The Evolution of British Railways 1909-2009 Britain’s Railways and The Railway Study Association 1909-2009 previously published in 2009 as part of A Century of Change 2019 Introduction to Second Edition Mike Horne FCILT MIRO This book was originally published by the name of ‘A Century of Change’ to commemorate the centenary of the Railway Study Association (RSA) in 1909; the Association is now the Railway Study Forum of the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport. Plenty has already been written about the railways of Britain. When the time came to celebrate the activities of the RSA, it occurred to this author that there was something missing. I felt that although it is self-evident that the railway today is very different to that of a century ago, the real point was that railways have been in a state of constant evolution, in part to respond to the changing conditions of the country and in part because of technological change. More importantly, this change will continue. Few people entering the in- dustry today can have much conception of what these changes will be, but change there will be: big changes too. What I wanted to highlight is the huge way the railway has altered, particularly in its technology and operational practices. This has happened, with great success, under diffi cult political and fi nancial conditions. Although the railway has lost much of its market share, the numbers of people carried today have recovered dramatically, and the fact this has been done on a much smaller system is an in- credible achievement that needs to be promoted.
