2013 Wheeltapper.Pub THE ANNUAL JOURNAL OF THE GUILD OF RAILWAY RINGERS JANUARY 2013 Including: WINTER TOUR DETAILS - LEAMINGTON & WARWICK DETAILS OF 2013 TOURS AGM REPORT & MINUTES FROM 2012 NEWS & REPORTS FROM 2012 PAGE 2 A MESSAGE FROM THE SECRETARY,CHRIS MEW Firstly, a very Happy New year to all our members and others who have supported the Guild activities during 2012. We haven’t got the distractions of the Jubilee or the Olympics this year so hope that there will be good attendance at the scheduled meetings which are as follows:- February 23rd - Warwick and Leamington area (see page 3) April 27th - Basingstoke area (along the old Basingstoke & Alton Railway) July 13th - Guild AGM on Severn Valley Railway September 7th - Southend on Sea area Please come along and make these days successful and we are always open to suggestions for additional outings or practices. The autumn meeting held last September visited towers in West Yorkshire and included Dews- bury 8 (now a Minster) and Huddersfield where we found the 10 quite hard work. This was fol- lowed by Brighouse 8, Mytholmroyd 8 where our skills were tested ringing the 3rd without a stay AND Yorkshire tail-ends! Final tower was Todmorden a light 6cwt 8 which were probably the best bells of the day. All the trains ran to time and it was interesting seeing Brighouse served by HST in the form of a Grand Central service to Kings Cross. Huddersfield church (above) - where the ring of 10 were found to be hard work! Mytholmroyd (left) where the band had to contend with Yorkshire tail ends and a broken stay on the 3rd!

PAGE 3 WHEELTAPPER A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN,CHRIS BASSETT Firstly I would like to wish all members a very Happy New Year and look forward to seeing you at future meetings. The programme for 2013 as agreed at the AGM 2012 in Brighton is as follows:- February 23rd –Warwick and Leamington (organiser Chris Mew). April 27th –Basingstoke –Alton (organiser Martin Boult) July 13th –Severn Valley Railway (organiser Russell Maiden) September 7th –Southend (organiser Peter Rayner or Gerry Bacon) Attendances at Guild meetings appears to have fallen over the past year, one reason was definitely the Royal Wedding which meant a change of date for the April meeting. As to other reasons, it could be due to a general result of the recession or the actual numbers of railway ringers within the industry and heritage railways falling. It is up to us all to encourage new members and to bring along friends to our events as they are always pleasurable and enjoyable days out. To make ringers more aware of us I am in the final stages of going live with our website, I will dis- tribute details to all members via the Secretary as soon as the website is launched. At the next AGM on the Severn Valley Railway in July, the Guild will need to agree its meeting pro- gramme for 2014. If we start now, there will be plenty of time for you to research potential venues. Please give this some careful thought and research where you would like to go and the public trans- port accessibility. Bring along a rough plan of your proposal for discussion at the AGM (or send it to the Secretary by the end of June). For your assistance, please refer to the “Guidelines for Tour Or- ganisers” (see page 8). As I have now been in the post of Chairman for nearly 20 years, I think it is about time someone else took up the reins. Please have a serious think on this subject and if you can think of some one suit- able then approach them (twist their arm if need be!!) and bring their name forward at the AGM. Chris Bassett.

LONDON UNDERGROUND 150 CELEBRATIONS &MALLARD’S 75TH ANNIVERSARY OF SPEED This year will see a number of “Anniversaries” the first of which has already taken place –the opening of the world’s first underground railway from Paddington to Farringdon on 10th Janu- ary , 1863. To mark the 150th anniversary a railwaymen’s quarter peal was rung at St Giles in the Fields, London on 12th January. St. Giles in the Fields, London WC Saturday 12h January 2013 1260 Grandsire Triples 1 - Richard Casserley 2 - Nick Cant 3 - Robin Grant 4 - Edward Mould 5 - Chris Bassett 6 - Chris mew (cond) 7 - Stephen Jakeman 8 - John Manley Arranged by the Guild of Railway Ringers to mark the 150th anniversary of the world’s first un- derground railway opened between Paddington and Farringdon on 9th January 1863. One of particular interest to all LNER and steam enthusiasts is the 75th Anniversary of Mallard’s record run in June 1938. The National Railway Museum is marking this with a line of 6 preserved A4 pacifics and a photo of a previous parade of 4 of them is shown below: PAGE 6 APEAL AT CREWE WITH CJBOWEN - COOKE ESQ ON THE 6TH! Going back into archives, in 1906 a perhaps unique peal was rung at Christ Church , Crewe by a band made up entirely of employees of the London and North Western Railway. The details are as follows and what is more remarkable that it included C J Bowen-Cooke (below) the Loco Superinten- dent who was later responsible for the design of the “George Fifth” and “Claughton” passenger classes and development of Webb’s 0-8-0 freight locos.

GUIDELINES FOR ORGANISERS When organising a meeting the following must be taken into consideration: - The initial meeting point must have National Rail access or by public transport from the National Rail Network. A heritage railway / museum / other means of transport (i.e. Tram etc) at the venue, whilst desirable is not obligatory. Other non-railway related places of interest / attractions can be offered as part of the meeting itinerary. A favourable balance towards time spent ringing/number of rings of bells against time spent at Non- ringing activities should be achieved. Consideration must be given to walking time, distance and elevation between points in the itinerary to ensure that all members (with varying levels of fitness) can keep to the time schedules. Consideration should be given to the provision of additional vehicular transport e.g., car sharing, taxis, mini-bus hire, public bus timetable or coach hire. The overall charge to those attending (to include administration, Ringing World adverts (for possible costs then consult the Hon Treasurer), tower fees and transport if provided) if possible should be kept to less than £15 per person per meeting day. VENUES FOR MEETINGS At the AGM or later at any non business meeting, the proposer must give an outline of the Meeting Plan to- gether with estimated administration / transport costs and the name of the organiser, before any proposition can be voted upon by the membership. Propositions with Meeting Plan can be sent at any time to the Hon Secretary. COSTINGS As far as possible all meetings should be self funded. However, financial subsidy may be available if additional transport is needed. Contact with the Hon Treasurer in advance of the arrangements publication date to check if a subsidy can be made for the event from Guild funds. PUBLICATION / ADVERTISING OF MEETING ARRANGEMENTS Final arrangements of a meeting must be in the hands of the Hon Secretary at least 8 weeks prior to the meeting date. The Hon Secretary will place relevant adverts in the Ringing World, Campanophile and circu- late to the membership. Information will also appear in “The Wheeltapper” if an edition is imminent. PAGE 8 WHEELTAPPER 2012 AGM HIGHLIGHTS The 2012 Annual General Meeting was held on July 7th in Brighton with 16 members attending. Considering that it was July the weather on the day was very dismal with periods of showers.

    1 RAILS BY THE SEA 2 RAILS BY THE SEA In what ways was the development of the seaside miniature railway influenced by the seaside spectacle and individual endeavour from 1900 until the present day? Dr. Marcus George Rooks, BDS (U. Wales). Primary FDSRCS(Eng) MA By Research and Independent Study. University of York Department of History September 2012 3 Abstract Little academic research has been undertaken concerning Seaside Miniature Railways as they fall outside more traditional subjects such as standard gauge and narrow gauge railway history and development. This dissertation is the first academic study on the subject and draws together aspects of miniature railways, fairground and leisure culture. It examines their history from their inception within the newly developing fairground culture of the United States towards the end of the 19th. century and their subsequent establishment and development within the UK. The development of the seaside and fairground spectacular were the catalysts for the establishment of the SMR in the UK. Their development was largely due to two individuals, W. Bassett-Lowke and Henry Greenly who realized their potential and the need to ally them with a suitable site such as the seaside resort. Without their input there is no doubt that SMRs would not have developed as they did. When they withdrew from the culture subsequent development was firmly in the hands of a number of individual entrepreneurs. Although embedded in the fairground culture they were not totally reliant on it which allowed them to flourish within the seaside resort even though the traditional fairground was in decline.

  • A Public Consultation on Revised Proposals for the Transposition of Directive 2008/57/EC on the Interoperability of the Rail System
    A public consultation on revised proposals for the transposition of Directive 2008/57/EC on the interoperability of the rail system 1 October 2011 Contents Executive Summary 2 How to respond 2 Freedom of Information 3 The Consultation Criteria 4 What will happen next 4 The proposals 5 Longer term strategic issues 22 List of consultation questions 25 Annexes: A – List of those consulted B - The Consultation Criteria C – Draft Railways (Interoperability) Regulations 2012 D - Transposition Note E – Draft List of Exclusions from Scope (GB) F – Draft Impact Assessment G – Directive 2008/57 (and updates) H – Commission Recommendation 2011/217 2 October 2011 Executive Summary i.) This consultation seeks views on draft regulations concerning the interoperability of the railways. These regulations are necessary to meet the requirements of the Interoperability Directive 2008/57/EC which recast earlier versions and the deadline for implementation was 19 July 2010. The recast Directive contained new provisions for type authorisation of vehicles. It also has provisions for the reauthorisation process for vehicles authorised in another Member State which have been moved from the 2004 Safety Directive into the Interoperability Directive. ii.) The draft regulations will implement the Directive for England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The reauthorisation of vehicles for the UK half of the Channel Tunnel are dealt with in bi-national safety regulations. All other requirements in the Directive in relation to the Tunnel will be implemented through these draft interoperability regulations. iii.) This consultation builds on two earlier rounds of consultation which were published by the Department in 2009 and 2010.

  • The Train to Downton Abbey? Presented by Ron Johnson Free Advice and Opinions: [email protected]
    The Train to Downton Abbey? Presented by Ron Johnson Free Advice and opinions: [email protected] The recent popularity of the Downton Abbey TV program has raised interest in old British homes and British history in general. Is it possible to drop in to visit Lord and Lady Grantham and get a spot of tea from cook? Err, not quite. But Britain is thick with hundreds of old preserved homes that follow the Downton model with kitchen downstairs and library, drawing rooms and possibly a ghost or two upstairs. Even better, Britain is also stuffed with thousands of avid railfans who have done incredible work preserving and operating old trains, including many steam locomotives. It is quite possible to tour Britain combining these two interests, as I have with my wife and friends some 30 times. This presentation is designed to whet your appetite for touring Britain and enjoying these combined interests. Getting There If you have never been overseas, Britain is the easiest place to start. Many of the natives speak a form of English, although it is not so clear as the English spoken by the Swedes or Dutch. Airline tickets are readily available, although not necessarily cheap. Your most likely point of arrival is at Heathrow Airport, which is convenient for my recommended tour. Gatwick and some smaller airports also serve London, and Birmingham, Manchester, Glasgow, etc., also have international flights. Getting Around Most of the restored railroads and grand homes are located in the countryside and a rental car is the easiest way to reach most destinations.
