  • The Mid-South Flyer South Flyer
    The MidMid----SouthSouth Flyer Summer 2015 A Publication of the Mid-South Chapter of the Railway & Locomotive Historical Society, Inc July Meeting Woodward Iron RR to be featured at July meeting The Woodward Iron Company Railroad was unique in being a keystone in one of the most com- plete vertically integrated industrial companies in the United States. Over four generations of the Woodward family operated a company that was synonymous with Birmingham as a producer of Woodward #35 with hot metal cars at Woodward Iron Furnace circa 1959 (Tom Lawson collection) “merchant iron” from 1881 to 1973 – the actual beginnings of the Woodward Company predate the beginning of the City of Birmingham. The Woodward Company and its leaders were a strong part of Birmingham’s business community, and its building occupied one street corner of the “heaviest corner on Earth.” Third generation A. H. “Rick” Woodward was perhaps one of the most colorful business leaders in Birmingham, including his owning the Birmingham Barons Baseball team, being the builder of Rickwood Field, and being a “millionaire” locomotive engineer. Mid-South member John Stewart has made a study of the Woodward family’s contribution to Birmingham’s indus- trial development, and John will present his research in a narrated slide program at our July 18 chapter meeting. For the benefit of those not familiar with Woodward, John has provided the following preview of his presentation: Before there was a Birmingham in 1871, the Woodward family began land ac- quisition in 1869 that would lead to a company that produced “merchant iron” in Don’t forget the Birmingham for over 90 years.

    - come ons out to alifornia Across the desert wasteland, over the sun-baked plains, the magic of the name California leads you on your way. Here the sun habitually shines. Near the coast flows the broad equable ocean current, from which a tempered breeze sweeps overland every morning, every night to return from the cool mountain tops. This is the California summer, cool at all hours, by the sea and in the mountains. Many esteem summer as the most desirable time of the year. But California is even more inviting during the winter, for at this time of year you may sit upon almost any veranda in the lowland country and lift your eyes from the variegated bloom of gardens to the far-off horizon buried in snow. To be out all day in the careless freedom of perfect weather; to wander through gardens and orchards; to gather flowers from the blos- soming hill slopes; to explore a hundred fasci- nating retreats of mountains and seashore—all this is permitted the year 'round in California. Nowhere in the world will you find a vacation paradise with more facilities for recreation con- centrated in such an accessible area. Whatever your favorite sport whatever your favorite way of just plain enjoying your- self. California offers it on a grand scale and in the grand manner. Sunshine—mountains—seashore— California's greatest attractions Play along:„ -the blue pacific Because of the proximity of ocean and desert, California is both warm in winter and cool in summer. That is why the blue Pacific plays such an important part in the vacation life of this region.

  • X S F G Q B N BRASS CAR SIDES Passenger Car Parts for the Streamliners Pullman-Standard Plan 7551 Dome Coach-Parlor-Lounge [Part No
    x S f G Q b n BRASS CAR SIDES Passenger Car Parts for the Streamliners Pullman-Standard Plan 7551 Dome Coach-Parlor-Lounge [Part No. 173-64] Three railroads took delivery of eight P-S dome cars in the period 1949-52. The cars were: B&O 550-551 "Strata-Dome" 42-seat dome coach-lounge (low profile dome canopy) Plan 7551. These two cars were repainted and renumbered as Amtrak 9420-9421 in the early 1970's. Missouri Pacific 893-95, IGN 896, T&P 200 "Planetarium" 42-seat dome coach Plan 7551-A. MP 894, 896 and 897 were sold to the IC in mid-1967, becoming IC 2210 -2212, respectively. Wabash 1602 "Blue Bird" dome parlor-drawing room Plan 7551-B became N&W 1602 with the 1964 merger, and it went to the Central of Georgia in 1968, followed by service on the Southern, still with the same number. In the spring of 2008 Brass Car Sides received encouragement and essential reservations for the production of N-scale sides for these cars from members of the N-scaleVarnish group on Yahoo.com, moderated by Jerry M. LaBoda. A smaller number of reservations for the HO version followed and this set was released in mid-2008. These sides are designed to be used with the Con- Cor model of the P-S dome lounge car patterned after the Santa Fe "Pleasure Dome" corrugated-side lounge used on the Super Chief. B&O or Amtrak modelers wishing to simulate the low-profile dome canopy of that prototype may find that modifying the Con-Cor car is still a worthwhile approach.

After quick and easy assembly by the modeler (what new prospect doesn't require a little hands-on work?), these new liveries are destined to be your MVP (Modeling Valid Prototypes) candidates.
