LONDON UNDERGROUND RAILWAYS 1913-32 James Fowler The York Management School University of York [email protected] A rapid deterioration in British railways’ financial results around 1900 sparked an intense debate about how productivity might be improved. As a comparison it was noted that US railways were much more productive and employed far more detailed statistical accounting methods, though the connection between the two was disputed and the distinction between the managerial and regulatory role of US statistical collection was unexplored. Nevertheless, The Railway Companies (Accounts and Returns) Act was passed in 1911 and from 1913 a continuous, detailed and standardized set of data was produced by all rail companies including the London underground. However, this did not prevent their eventual amalgamation into the London Passenger Transport Board in 1933 on grounds of efficiency. This article finds that despite the hopes of the protagonists, collecting more detailed statistics did not improve productivity and suggests that their primary use was in generating publicity to influence shareholders’, passengers’ and workers’ perceptions.

  • How Understanding a Railway's Historic Evolution Can Guide Future

Managing Technical & Operational Development PhD Thesis Abstract The argument for this thesis is that patterns of past engineering and operational development can be used to support the creation of a good, robust strategy for future development and that, in order to achieve this, a corporate understanding of the history of the engineering, operational and organisational changes in the business is essential for any evolving railway undertaking. It has been the objective of the author of this study to determine whether it is essential that the history and development of a railway undertaking be known and understood by its management and staff in order for the railway to function in an efficient manner and for it to be able to develop robust and appropriate improvement strategies in a cost-effective manner.

Our Vision for the future For more than 50 years the Tramway Museum Society, from acquiring disused quarry premises at Crich for storing and operating tramcars, has grown to a very prestigious Nationally recognised Museum with a Designated Collection and which attracts around 100, 000 visitors each year. This has been achieved in many respects with a clear documented vision with regard to both the tramcar collection and the development of the Museum environment. The total commitment and passion to preserve and demonstrate function and form of tramcars by a core of volunteers has resulted in the creation of a street scene based visitor attraction. With this in mind the following vision has been defined: “To be the best heritage tramway experience in the world.” This vision will not be achieved without commitment and planning, significant time, money, and human endeavour being invested.

PDF Booklet: 118-1 2 North Eastern Railway: The Buses 1903-1923 In 1898 a Light Railway Order was granted for the construction of a railway between Beverley and North Frodingham (the North Holderness Light Railway) in the East Riding of Yorkshire. The North Eastern Railway (NER) immediately acquired the responsibility for the construction and the passing of their Act of 1899 made them liable for the completion of the line within five years. As time dragged on, the cost of building the railway began to rise and finally it was decided to abandon the project, much to the dismay of the locals. As a result a tramway was proposed instead, but the costs of constructing a tramway were almost as high as constructing the railway, so a bus service was suggested as an alternative.

  • Don Underground Railway Society
    THE JOURNAL OF THE LONDON UNDERGROUND RAILWAY SOCIETY U Issue No 89 Volume 8 No 5 May 1969 CHANGES WITHIN THE SOCIETY ••• N During the year between the 1968 and 1969 Annual Me etings there were more than the " us ual number of changes of Officers and Committee Members; two particularly serious losses were D those of Ken Benest and Joe Brook Smith; Ken resigned from the Committee, and from the Treasurership during the year, and Joe did not seek re-election at the AGM and is soon to hand E over the Modelling Secretaryship to Bob Greenaway. Both Joe and Ken were members of the Forming Committee of the Society in 1961 , and have had continuous Committee service since then - and R their services have been invaluab le. They both, of course, remain members of the Society, and it is to be hoped that their surrender of duties will give them greater leisure to enjoy their own G individual Underground interests - Ken ' s in historical research and Joe's in modelling. All this makes your Editor feel rather R vulnerable - or venerable - or both - as he is (when wearing his other hat as Chairman) the sole surviving member of the Forming Committee to remain on the Society Committee! o One thing is par ticularly noticeable at present - the lowering of the average age of the Committee members; the Society probably has the youngest Committee that it has ever had U now - which can only be a good thing, and augurs well for the future of TLURS . It may be confid­ ently assumed that the newe r me mbers of the Committee will serve the Soc iety with the same N loyalty as did those they replace .

To run on this new gauge, three old London County Council tram cars THROUGH THE YEARS arrived by train to operate the service on the new track. These new acquisitions were larger than the former Llanelly vehicles and consequently required two horses to pull BY them. The Llanelly Tramway Co Ltd, had only a short time left to operate, because three years later in 1911, the horse drawn Esmor Davies trams ceased altogether, and the new © 2005 electric cars took over.
