  • Track & Turnouts
    Track & Turnouts Prototype Notes Real industrial narrow gauge railways were often transitory in nature. In addition, almost without exception they were built as economically as possible, the equipment being treated as 'plant' - a tool to get the job done. As a result the track bed was hurriedly formed and near non-existent on some lines. Permanent earthworks were avoid- ed if at all possible and only undertaken if the railway was expected to be especially remunerative or if there was no other option! The gauge that became virtually universal was 24 inches. Manufacturers offered two-foot gauge material from stock - other gauges were to special order only. To allow the ready laying and movement of track a rigid portable system was developed, the leading British manufacturer of which was Robert Hudson of Leeds. This comprised pressed metal sleepers bolted to short lengths of rail. In its lightest form the panels of portable track were easily picked up by one man and repaid to suit. These light tracks were only suitable for wagons pushed by men or drawn by horses. Later, when small locomotives were introduced and loads became larger, a more robust form of semi-portable track was devised. This retained the fixed geometry and moveable nature of the earlier product but was stronger and heavier. Our track parts represent this latter type. As the years passed a British Standard for portable track evolved. The last full set of such standards was issued in April 1934 as BS 536-1934. There were three types of portable railway track dealt with, all 24 inch gauge.

  • Portable Track for Agricultural and Industrial Tramways
    Australian Narrow Gauge Convention 2013 Portable Track for Agricultural and Industrial Tramways Lynn Zelmer (lynn @ zelmeroz.com) Animal, human and gravity powered tramways were very common in late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Enterprises generally had some permanent way, often with steam powered locomotives, and laid temporary track directly on the ground to collect materials from quarries and fields. This use of portable track continued into the trench railways of WWI and continues today in some of less developed plantation economies. This lightweight portable track forms the subject of this presentation, especially as it relates to cane railways. Background Bullocks working portable track laying into a Fijian cane field. Immediately in front of the bullocks is an incline laid on top of the permanent way which, coupled with a curved track section, will allow wagons to smoothly move in and out of the nearby field. The 4w trucks behind are loaded with portable track sections. It's quite possible that the permanent way is also constructed from portable track sections, bolted together and stabalised by the cane trash, etc. Brad Peadon photographer. Early catalogues indicate many sources of portable trackwork, either as complete tramways or components to be assembled on site. The agricultural plantations and mill systems of the late nineteenth century profited from developments arising from similar portable track use in the Welsh quarries and other European mining and light industrial use. They had similar needs and solved them by evolving from timber rails and gravity or human power to the use of animal power, more sophisticated track systems and eventually light steam power.

  • Heartwood – Robert Hudson & Tim Hildebrandt Revisit “Nothin' Fancy,”
    Heartwood – Robert Hudson & Tim Hildebrandt revisit “Nothin’ Fancy,” a “lost” Southern Rock belle January 13th, 2009 2 Comments The 1970s were, for many, the glory days of Southern Rock. All across the south great music could be heard from bands such as The Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Outlaws, Atlanta Rhythm Section, Wet Willie, Marshall Tucker Band and many more. Of those bands that “made it,” dozens more enjoyed a run of regional popularity, soaking up the applause in back-road bars, juke joints and clubs. One such band was Heartwood, whose drummer Robert Hudson’s Web site provides the following history on the seven-piece country-rock outfit. “Heartwood formed in Greenville, NC, in early 1972. The band was originally called The Band from Clayroot which was a little crossroads outside of Greenville. We recorded our first album in a studio in Baily, NC. It was at that time that we changed our name due to pressure from the record company that was concerned about the ‘obvious’ sexual connotation of the word clayroot. We played throughout North Carolina. Just after releasing the album, it was bought by GRC Records based in Atlanta. Their new A&R guy decided that the record should be re-recorded at their new studio in Atlanta. We went in the studio and recorded all the tracks and the ‘new’ Heartwood album was released. Our management company, also located in Atlanta started booking us in Georgia and Alabama a lot so we decided to move to Athens, GA. to be closer to our record company and the new area of gigs.

As you will know Rich Morris stood for election at the last A.G.M. and as I felt I was becoming "stale" after six years of editorship I decided to stand down. I would like to take a little room up in this issue to thank the many helpers who have made my job easier over the years - our typists M/s Enid Taylor of Harrogate, our printers M/& Allanwood Press of Pudsey (who are looking forward to a 'rest' from this involved job) - Ken Bettis who addresses o~r er.velopes, RNR's Thursday splinter group who pack and post over 600 maga• zines in a thirsty session. My correspondents and draughtsmen, too numerous to mention all, but thanks especially to Ron Redman, Ivan Stephenson, Peter Halton, and Sydney Moir, Brian Webb and Ken Hartley, who have given me whole-hearted support from the very start in 19650 My best wishes go to all members of THE Society, and the new editor in particular. May you have many pleasant hours of narrow gauge grici;'.7 ~ead, a full head of steam and clear signals.

    COMPREHENSIVE PLAN July 26, 2018 _______________________________________ Centralia Comprehensive Plan 2025 Page 1 STATEMENT OF CONTRIBUTORS Planning and Zoning Chairman H. LeeAllen Smith I believe that this document should be treated as an ongoing process. It lays out the general direction that the Planning and Zoning Commission, and the committees that have spent their time and energy to develop, believe is the proper direction. Things will change as the city grows and this document is not set in stone, changes in various parts are imminent. As a former Alderman, I feel that it is vital that every member of the Centralia Board of Alderman, current and newly elected, Planning and Zoning Commission, the Park Director, and city department foremen, should read The Centralia Comprehensive Plan 2025 so they will have a general idea as to the direction the city should be moving in future growth and a better understanding of why this direction is important. I would also like to personally thank everyone for their hard work on this plan.

  • RT Models 7Mm Scale, 0 Gauge Hudson Tipper Wagon Kit History
    RT Models 7mm Scale, 0 gauge Hudson Tipper wagon kit History Robert Hudson at Gildersome Works near Morley, Leeds had been producing side tipping wagons for light railways and contractors since before the 1880s. Hudson set up the works in 1865 for general foundry and engineering production. The company was registered as a limited company in 1914 with an authorised share capital of £300,000, and went public in 1948. The end came virtually in 1982 when the Gildersome site was sold, but some work continued elsewhere for a further three years. They patented the unique rolling centre pivot three point tipping mechanism for light railway tipping cars in 1875. This design allowed the triangular shaped skip to be stable in normal position but to allow a man to single-handedly tip the contents out, and for the body to remain stable in a fully tipped right or left hand position. Initially production concentrated on skips for light narrow gauge and this is what most people associate with Hudsons, the type could be found in quarries and mines everywhere. It used steel pressings in the main combining a high degree of ruggedness with a light weight. In about 1937 the trade name ‘Rugga’ was applied to these small skips to an improved design. Similarly during the 20th Century larger versions became popular, especially with collieries, and numerous standard gauge vehicles of 300 cu. ft. capacity were sold to mines and the National Coal Board for disposing of mine stone, and were still doing so until the early 1980s. They were also to be found used by contractors for spoil clearance and land reclamation, in chalk quarries, and for the disposal of sewage sludge.

  • Digital Book Sales Catalogue.Pdf
    January 2021 The Industrial Railway Society was founded in 1949 as the Industrial Locomotive Section of the Birmingham Locomotive Club. Its earliest activity was to produce a set of regional Pocket Books listing all known industrial locomotives in those areas. Over the years the Pocket Books have expanded to become highly detailed Handbooks, and since 1969 the Society has also published the EL series, a list of all existing locos in industrial service, on Heritage Railways and in private ownership in the UK and Ireland. Literature on industrial railways was often not well catered for by general bookshops, so it soon became IRS policy to try to make available for sale (sometimes at a discount to IRS members) a range of Industrial, Narrow Gauge and Light Railway publications (including some foreign publications) which are not easily obtained in the High Street. The loss of some specialist railway bookshops in recent years (the last Ian Allan transport bookshop closed in October 2020) has made this service even more important. Because of its contacts in this specialist area the IRS also frequently obtains out of print volumes that are not easy to find, even on the Internet. This Catalogue lists those publications which were in stock in December 2020, although stocks of older (out of print) books may be low, and the titles may therefore soon become unavailable. Other railway books from main-stream publishers can often be obtained but these are NOT usually held in stock. Titles are listed by publisher, with an index of titles at the end of the Catalogue.
