    INCORPORATED 1952 NUMBER 446 DECEMBER 1986 mcmr ewismns UPPER CANADA RAILWAY SOCIETY BOX 122 STATION "A" TORONTO, ONTARIO A Neoplan articulated trolley coach, equipped with a diesel engine for off wire operation, was tested in Hamilton during the last week of November, 1986, and was due at the TTC for 2i weeks of testing immediately afterward. Photo taken on HSR's King route, at Strath- Preserved locomotives and passenger cars at the NRZ Railway Museum, Raylton, Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. The building in the background houses and exhibits the smaller pieces of railroadiana. I i •] T ' • . I^ I., Iji .r !•,.!• 1 i rl • I . .: ! 1 In mid-October, 1986, this was the scene west of Pickering, where the erstwhile GO-ALRT line was being constructed, requiring two temporary bridges under CN's York Sub. (MacMillan Yd. access line). The bridge, far right, carries the access line across Hwy. 401. ... mi. --John D. Thompson DECEMBER 1986 3 A RAILWAY MUSEUM FOR ZIMBABWE By Sandy Worthen It is easy to understand why railways developed so rapidly in England, ttfe land of their birth, in the first half of the 19th cet|tury- And so it is quite logical that one of the world's finest railway museums, the National Museum at York, England, should have been established at an early date. When George Stephenson's LOCOMOTION hauled the first steam powered train on any public railway in the world on Sept. 27, 1825, from Shildon to Stockton-Quay, with 10 loaded coal trucks, 21 waggons fitted with temporary seats and a solitary passenger coach named EXPERIMENT, it was certain that, one day, someone would have the idea of saving some railway equipment to commemorate this historic event.

  • NG 15, Loco No. 134
    NG 15, loco no. 134 Last repair book whilst in use by SAR from Humewood Road Mostly translated from Afrikaans, by Martin Coombs, with help from members of the SAR-L e-mail group including Pierre de Wet, James Smith, Aidan McCarthy and Keith Simmons. Further assistance from the bilingual diagrams in the SAR Handbook on the Steam Locomotive for Enginemen and Running Shed Staff, and from the online Afrikaans-English dictionary at <http://www.websters-online- dictionary.org/definition/Afrikaans-english/index7.html>. Notes: Repair books tend to be written in a hurry by drivers at the end of their shifts, using whatever writing implement was to hand. In addition drivers may not be particular- ly literate or good at spelling, and may use colloquialisms. Thus translating such a document is not easy and there have been one or two times when I have had to make a guess at what was written. However, in 99% of cases I think the general meaning has been clear. Key: ??? or Illeg. implies that there is a word or words that cannot be deciphered. Text in red remains in Afrikaans for lack of a translation. Text in blue is comment by me. Implications: As one correspondent commented, most of the minor problems will be sorted during the normal processes of restoration but the references in the later pages to serious leakage from stays or foundation ring rivets on the rear left of the firebox need to be taken more seriously. I think ‘klinknaels ‘ means rivets rather than stays (= ankers) but drivers might have used the term indiscriminately.

BALANCEDvalves of a variety of types, for locomotive and other engines, have been before the engineering world for many years. Many of them have, however, failed to give satisfactory results, as is testified by the fact that their adoption has been restricted to experimental trials. The valve described in this Paper, being in actual use on various classes of locomotives with good results, may be considered as beyond the experimental stage. The constructionand action of the valve as applied to loco- motive-engines will be understood from the diagram, Fig. 1. Fig. 1. MCDONALDPNEUNATIC BALANCED VALVE AS FITTED ON ENGINENo. 146 I. G. R. OF JAPAN. Into the back of an ordinary valve V a sliding crown F is fitted. If this crown bemade rectangular, the Author finds the U-shaped form shown inthe Fig, to be satisfactory. If the sliding crown or crowns be made circular, ordinary Ramsbottom packing-rings may be employed. On the admission of steam, the back-pressure throws the crown against a plate fitted to the back of the steam-chest cover, or this plate can be cast in the cover ; and the valve with its crown moves backwards and forwards, with a pressure on its lower face dependent on the pressure of the live steam and the difference between the area of the crown of the Downloaded by [ University of Sussex] on [13/09/16].

  • Southern Railway Locomotive Drawings and Microfilm Lists.Xlsx
    Southern Railway Microfilm Lists Description: These are a selection from the Southern Railway Works drawings collection deemed to be of particular interest to researchers and preserved railways. The cards are listed in two tables – a main list of drawings from each of the main works and a smaller list of sketches. There are 943 drawings in total. The main table of drawings has been sub-divided into the three constituent works of the former Southern Railway and British Rail (Southern Region). These were Ashford (formerly the South Eastern & Chatham Railway), Brighton (formerly the London, Brighton & South Coast Railway, both B and W series) and Eastleigh (formerly the London & South Western Railway and including the predecessor works at Nine Elms). There are 826 drawings in this series. Details in the tables are drawn directly from the originals. Further information may be obtained by cross-reference with the full list of surviving original drawings (locomotives only) or works registers. A small number of drawings are of poor quality and will not print out in fine detail. This has usually been indicated. Users of these aperture cards are advised that they should view the aperture cards before purchasing printed copies as there can be no guarantee that all details will be clearly visible. The tables as set out include all drawings copied up to the present. The majority are from locomotives, but there are some from carriage and wagons. At all the works these were drawn in the same numerical series. The listing of the original carriage and wagon drawings from the former Southern works is still at an early stage and there may therefore be additions to the available aperture cards in due course.

  • THE USATC S160 WAR LOCOS in GERMANY. In
    THE USATC S160 WAR LOCOS IN GERMANY. In 'Eisenbahn Kurier' 4/2014 pp.38-46 is Part 1 of an article by Andreas Knipping on these American 2-8-0 locos and their wartime and post-war use in Germany. ''As is well known, the major battlefields and occupation areas of both World Wars were largely and for the majority of the period outside Germany itself. The First World War only affected the Reichsgebiete in the southern part of Alsace and briefly in 1914 in East Prussia; the Second World War (apart of course from the air war) was held outside the Reich's borders until October 1944. The history of the German military railways and the German locomotives between the Atlantic and Black Seas is therefore very extensive. The G3, G4, G5 and G7 in the First World War, the P8, G8, G8.1 and G10 in both World Wars as well as the 50, 52 and 56.20 in the Second War covered many millions of kilometres in Belgium and France, in Russia and in the Balkans. Thousands of examples of these classes remained in foreign countries, and influenced operations there for decades. In Germany, in contrast, railway operations using foreign locomotives brought in remained the exception. It is true that the Soviet forces using the railway lines intensively as they fell into their hands from 1944 and indeed during their continuing presence in Germany until 1994, but the different gauges hindered a widespread use of Soviet locomotives during the periods of conquest and occupation and 'alliance'. Only a very few classes of locomotive of foreign construction worked for a brief period in Germany in any significant numbers.
