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. -

PRESERVED COACHING STOCK OF BRITISH RAILWAYS AMENDMENT SHEET NUMBER 71 September/October 2004 SPECIAL AND CHARTER TRAIN COACHING STOCK 1) Old Oak Common Fire During the evening of 5 th September a fire started in Fragonset Railways Mark 1 RBR 1981 stabled at Old Oak Common. The London Fire Brigade preliminary investigation concluded that the fire had been caused as a result of the boiler in the kitchen area of the carriage having been left on and consequently boiling dry. The consequential fire then burnt through the bottom of the boiler, then through the aluminium floor of the kitchen before spreading through the whole carriage and to adjacent carriages before being brought under control by the fire brigade. In addition to the extensive damage to 1981 it is understood that Mark 2 FOs 3429 and 3300 coupled either side of it were severely damaged along with lesser damage to FO 3337 coupled to 3300. On adjacent sidings and extensively damaged were Mark 2 TSOs 5814 and 5816 on one side and Mark 2 TSOs 5389 SIR GALAHAD and 5420 LYONNESSE on the other. Other carriages close by also suffered from smoke damage. 2) Fragonset Railways Mark 1 RBR 1657 has been acquired from the Llangollen Railway (see below) and moved to the companies Derby workshops.

November 2019 Welcome to the Rail User Express. RUX is published around the middle of each month. It may be forwarded, or items reproduced in another newsletter (quoting sources). Anyone may request RUX as an email attachment, or opt to be notified when it is posted on the Railfuture (Rf) website. There is no charge for either service. Following GDPR, Railfuture Membership now maintains both lists. Please advise if you no longer wish to receive the newsletter or link, or if you know of anyone who would like to be added. For further details of any of the stories mentioned, please consult the relevant website, or ask the editor for the source material. The DfT’s Autumn Update of the Rail Network Enhancements Pipeline (RNEP) on the progress of schemes funded in CP6 (2019-2024) makes salutary reading, and the message is clear: don’t hold your breath! Even schemes buoyed by a visit from the S of S for Transport are still at an early stage, eg Skipton - Colne at Decision to Initiate, and Ashington - Blythe – Tyne at Decision to Develop. No scheme can proceed into delivery until it has a Decision to Deliver. So, taken at face value, even Phase 2 of the Western section of East West Rail (Bicester - Bedford) has yet to be confirmed. Roger Smith We continue with the usual roundup of news items from groups around the UK. Please keep your contributions coming: they are all gratefully received. Friends of the Far North Line As a member of the FNL Review Team, FoFNL is delighted that its Report confirms that infrastructure work essential to planned improvements to the FNL service pattern is to go through its final stages before financial approval. -
