  • The Underground Railroad in Tennessee to 1865
    The State of State History in Tennessee in 2008 The Underground Railroad in Tennesseee to 1865 A Report By State Historian Walter T. Durham The State of State History in Tennessee in 2008 The Underground Railroad in Tennessee to 1865 A Report by State Historian Walter T. Durham Tennessee State Library and Archives Department of State Nashville, Tennessee 37243 Jeanne D. Sugg State Librarian and Archivist Department of State, Authorization No. 305294, 2000 copies November 2008. This public document was promulgated at a cost of $1.77 per copy. Preface and Acknowledgments In 2004 and again in 2006, I published studies called The State of State History in Tennessee. The works surveyed the organizations and activities that preserve and interpret Tennessee history and bring it to a diverse public. This year I deviate by making a study of the Under- ground Railroad in Tennessee and bringing it into the State of State History series. No prior statewide study of this re- markable phenomenon has been produced, a situation now remedied. During the early nineteenth century, the number of slaves escaping the South to fi nd freedom in the northern states slowly increased. The escape methodologies and ex- perience, repeated over and over again, became known as the Underground Railroad. In the period immediately after the Civil War a plethora of books and articles appeared dealing with the Underground Railroad. Largely written by or for white men, the accounts contained recollections of the roles they played in assisting slaves make their escapes. There was understandable exag- geration because most of them had been prewar abolitionists who wanted it known that they had contributed much to the successful fl ights of a number of slaves, oft times at great danger to themselves.

  • Members and Parish/Neighbourhood Councils RAIL UPDATE
    ITEM 1 TRANSPORT COMMITTEE NEWS 07 MARCH 2000 This report may be of interest to: All Members and Parish/Neighbourhood Councils RAIL UPDATE Accountable Officer: John Inman Author: Stephen Mortimer 1. Purpose 1.1 To advise the Committee of developments relating to Milton Keynes’ rail services. 2. Summary 2.1 West Coast Main Line Modernisation and Upgrade is now in the active planning stage. It will result in faster and more frequent train services between Milton Keynes Central and London, and between Milton Keynes Central and points north. Bletchley and Wolverton will also have improved services to London. 2.2 Funding for East-West Rail is now being sought from the Shadow Strategic Rail Authority (SSRA) for the western end of the line (Oxford-Bedford). Though the SSRA have permitted a bid only for a 60 m.p.h. single-track railway, excluding the Aylesbury branch and upgrade of the Marston Vale (Bedford-Bletchley) line, other Railtrack investment and possible developer contributions (yet to be investigated) may allow these elements to be included, as well as perhaps a 90 m.p.h. double- track railway. As this part of East-West Rail already exists, no form of planning permission is required; however, Transport and Works Act procedures are to be started to build the missing parts of the eastern end of the line. 2.3 New trains were introduced on the Marston Vale line, Autumn 1999. A study of the passenger accessibility of Marston Vale stations identified various desirable improvements, for which a contribution of £10,000 is required from this Council.

  • Capacity Utilisation and Performance at Railway Stations
    Capacity Utilisation and Performance at Railway Stations John Armstrong a,b,1, John Preston a a Transportation Research Group, Faculty of Engineering and the Environment, Southampton Boldrewood Innovation Campus, University of Southampton Burgess Road, Southampton SO16 7QF, UK b Arup, 13 Fitzroy Street, London W1T 4BQ, UK 1 E-mail: [email protected], Phone: +44 (0) 23 8059 9575 Abstract As traffic levels increase on railways in Britain and elsewhere, improved understanding of the trade-offs between capacity provision/utilisation and service quality is increasingly important, as Infrastructure Managers and Railway Undertakings seek to maximise capacity provision without an unacceptable loss of service reliability and punctuality. This is particularly true of the stations and junctions forming the nodes of railway networks, as they tend to be the capacity bottlenecks, and the relationships between capacity utilisation and performance are less well understood for nodes than for their intermediate links. Following on from initial work undertaken for the OCCASION project on the calculation of nodal Capacity Utilisation Indices, and on the application of the techniques developed for OCCASION to the recalibration of the Capacity Charge element of the Track Access Charges on Britain’s railways, one of the objectives of the DITTO Rail Systems project is the further investigation of the relationship(s) between capacity utilisation and performance, as indicated by levels of congestion-related reactionary delay, at railway stations and junctions. Historic timetable and delay data for selected stations have been used to investigate these relationships, which take the expected form and tend to suggest lower maximum capacity utilisation levels for stations than for the links between them.

  • Maidenhead Bridge Proposed Work
    W01-W05.Maidenhead 25/8/04 5:19 PM Page 1 W1.1 Maidenhead Bridge Proposed Work The Maidenhead Bridge over the River Thames at Maidenhead is a Grade II* listed structure. Installation of overhead electrification on top of the structure would be required. The design is being undertaken in conjunction with heritage specialists to help ensure that the impact on the structure is acceptable. Once installed, the gantries are likely to be visible on the bridge from viewpoints along the river and nearby. As an example, electrification for the Heathrow Express involved the provision of overhead electrification over Wharncliffe Viaduct in Ealing.
