  • Thompson Class O1 Locomotives Class Rebuilt from LNER 1924

    Thompson Class O1 Locomotives Class Rebuilt from LNER 1924

    Thompson Class O1 Locomotives By Peter Sheppard The Thompson O1 class consisted of the 58 locomotives in the table below . Please note the blank spaces in the table are deliberate. For example No. 63571 became a class O1 locomotive in BR days so the only number it carried as a Class O1 was 63571. A second example is No. 3594 which was rebuilt after the 1946 numbering scheme had been introduced so it received the LNER 1946 number 3594 and then the BR number 63594. A further example is Class O4/1 No. 5408 which was rebuilt as a class O1 before 1946 so retained its 1924 LNER number of 5408. Under the 1946 renumbering scheme it was renumbered twice firstly on 1 September 1946 to No. 3529 and secondly on 26 February 1947 to 3678. British Railways renumbered it to 63678 on 4 September 1948. Please note that the different type faces for the BR numbers is deliberate. It is either assumed or known that the locomotives carried the correct Gil Sans style numerals, e.g. 63652, on their smokebox door unless photographic evidence shows the contrary e.g. 63663.

  • The Steam Locomotive Table, V1

    The Steam Locomotive Table, V1

    The Steam Locomotive Table, v1 If you’re reading this; you either like steam trains, or want to know more about them. Hopefully, either way, I can scratch your itch with this; a set of randomizer/dice-roll tables of my own making; as inspired by some similar tables for tanks and aircrafts. Bear with me, I know not everyone knows the things I do, and I sure know I don’t know a lot of things other train enthusiasts do; but hopefully the descriptions and examples will be enough to get anyone through this smoothly. To begin, you’ll either want a bunch of dice or any online dice-rolling/number generating site (or just pick at your own whim); and somewhere or something to keep track of the details. These tables will give details of a presumed (roughly) standard steam locomotive. No sentinels or other engines with vertical boilers; no climax, shay, etc specially driven locomotives; are considered for this listing as they can change many of the fundamental details of an engine. Go in expecting to make the likes of mainline, branchline, dockyard, etc engines; not the likes of experiments like Bulleid’s Leader or specific industry engines like the aforementioned logging shays. Some dice rolls will have uneven distribution, such as “1-4, and 5-6”. Typically this means that the less likely detail is also one that is/was significantly less common in real life, or significantly more complex to depict. For clarity sake examples will be linked, but you’re always encouraged to look up more as you would like or feel necessary.

    U DYE WB Yeadon London & North Eastern 1847-1997 Railway Collection

    Hull History Centre: W.B. Yeadon London & North Eastern Railway collection U DYE W.B. Yeadon London & North Eastern 1847-1997 Railway collection Historical background: Willie Brayshaw Yeadon was born in Yeadon in the West Riding of Yorkshire on 28 June 1907. After his schooldays, he trained to become a mechanical engineer, and started work with Bradford Dyers, but was unfortunately made redundant in 1930 following the onset of terrible trading conditions. In 1931 he joined JH Fenner Ltd in Hull ('makers of improved beltings'), eventually becoming Sales Manager and then Marketing Manager, until his official retirement in 1972. He died at the age of 89 on 16 January 1997 in Hull Royal Infirmary after a short illness. By then he had become probably the country's leading authority on the London & North Eastern Railway and its locomotives. Indeed, Eric Fry, honorary editor of 'Locomotives of the LNER', writing in the 'Railway Observer' in March 1997, described him as possibly 'the foremost locomotive historian of all time'. Willie Yeadon's earliest railway interest had been the London & North Western Railway, with visits and family holidays to Shap summit and Tebay. On his removal to Hull, however, the London & North Eastern Railway became his main preoccupation, and he was particularly inspired by the development and progress of Sir Nigel Gresley's Pacific class locomotives during the 1930s. He began to collect railway photographs in 1933, and continued his interest after railway nationalisation in 1948. The British Railways modernisation programme undertaken from the mid - 1950s prompted him to investigate and record the history of every LNER locomotive.

    Memory Lane – Auf Der Straße Der Erinnerung

    Memory Lane – Auf der Straße der Erinnerung Ein uraltes blaues Photoalbum erregte meine Aufmerksamkeit in einem walisischen Junk-Shop. Es enthält zahlreiche Photos von Dampflokomotiven, aber auch von Flugzeugen, Hubschraubern und Schiffen, sowie Bahnhöfen, Straßen und Gebäuden. Der unbekannte Photograph nahm sie ab 1951 auf. Besonderes Interesse zeigte er nicht nur an Kirmes- und Garteneisenbahnen, an den großen und kleinen Loks der British Railways, sondern auch an der schmalspurigen Talyllyn Railway in Wales. Spannend war die detektivische Suche nach weiteren Details zu den Lokomotiven und Orten. Eine unschätzbare Hilfe ist mit vielen Informationen die Internetseite http://www.railuk.info/steam/getsteam.php?row_id=23182 . @P. Dr. D.

    @PRESS RELEASE = PRESS INFORMATION - PRESS INFORMATION - PRESS INFORMATION 24 June 1994 CYLINDER PATTERNS ORDERED FOR NEW STEAM LOCOMOTIVE The A1 Steam Locomotive Trust, the registered charity which is building the new ex-LNER Class A1 Pacific 60163, the first mainline steam locomotive to be built in Britain since 1960, today announced that it had placed a £20,000 order with Kings Heath Patterns of Birmingham, for the manufacture of the new locomotive's three cylinder patterns. This order represents a major step towards the completion of the new locomotive as cylinder patterns are long lead-time items of great expense and are on the critical path towards the construction of the locomotive. The three cylinder patterns will be delivered over the next year, with the inside cylinder pattern being available for inspection at the A1 Steam Locomotive Trust's convention in Doncaster in September and the core boxes following by Christmas. The remaining two outside cylinder patterns will follow in April and July 1995. Although negotiations are currently taking place as to which company will cast the cylinders, it is anticipated that casting of the inside cylinder will take place in early 1995, with the outside two following on completion of their patterns. The cylinders for 60163 will be cast from a higher quality of iron than the cylinders of the original 49 A1s as part of the drive by the Trust to build the new locomotive to the highest possible quality. David Elliott, Technical Director, A1 Steam Locomotive Trust, commented: Last month we announced that work had begun on the manufacture of the new locomotive's frames.

    Stratford Drawings and Microfilm Lists.Xlsx

    Stratford Photo Tracings and Liquid Fuel Photo Tracings Drawings Lists Description: There are approximately 16000 engineering drawings covering locomotives, carriages and wagons, components, road vehicles and a miscellaneous variety of objects. There is an associated and quite unique card index system related to the drawings and a set of registers. System of arrangement: The engineering drawings have been sorted and listed in separate series based on the apparent practice of the drawing office at Stratford. The main series of the drawings can be categorised into four main types: 1. Photo tracings on wax linen. These acted as a master from which copies could be made for other purposes. 2. Office copies. These were prints on paper, with the earliest using a cyanotype photo process for copying, sometime additionally coloured, and kept in the drawing office. 3. Shop copies. These were on a variety of materials tacked onto wooden rods and used in the workshops. They have survived in this condition and are inevitably uniformly dirty and frequently in poor condition. 4. Bench-hole copies. These were separate from the main series, as only about 20% originated at Stratford. Most came from external sources. Essentially they formed a technical reference library of ideas and suggestions. They were folded and stored flat in a pigeonhole system. In total they comprise approximately 16000 drawings. There is duplication between the various series but the extent of this has not yet been appraised. The main series of drawings runs potentially from 1 to 42459, plus ‘attachments’ and ‘parts’ drawings. Most of these drawings have not survived into the present, as a result of periodic culls of material.
