  • Narrow-Gauge Railways, of Two Feet Gauge and Under
    376 JULY 1898. NARROW-GAUGE RAILWAYS, OF TWO FEET GAUGE AND UNDER. - BY Mn. LESLIE S. ROBERTSON, OF LONDON. __ The circumstance that the Members of the Institution are to have the opportunity, through the courtesy of Sir Arthur Percival Heywood, Bart., of inspecting an interesting example of a very Narrow-Gauge Line of his own design, ?or which all the details, mechanical and otherwise, have been carefully thought out by its designer-and the coincidence that this meeting of the Institution is being held under the presidency of one of the leading locomotive engineers of this country-render the present a favourable opportunity for bringing before the Institution some facts in connection with this class of Light Railways. The whole subject of light railways cannot be treated within the limits of the present short paper, which is confined to narrow-gauge railways of two feet gauge and under: although the author is personally of opinion that the circumstances which would justify the adoption of a gauge under two feet must be of an exceptional character. Comparatively few engineers realise the capability of narrow-gauge railways, and the saving that can be effected by their adoption, when applied to large industrial undertakings. Several instances have come under the author's notice, where the judicious adoption of light narrow-gauge lines, such as those dealt with in this paper, has resulted in considerable financial benefit to those concerned in them. Reasons for adoption.-Narrow-gauge lines of this class may be roughly divided into two categories:-first, where the work to be done is of a permanent and constant nature, enabling the line'to be laid down as a fixture ; and second, where the work is of a temporary character.

  • Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway by David Ward Released by Bubble’S Railways – November 2013
    Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway By David Ward Released by Bubble’s Railways – November 2013 Introduction This is a representation of the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway in Microsoft Train Simulator. It does not represent the line at the present time as major building work has recently taken place at Ravenglass and some minor trackwork alteration has taken place from the diagrams represented on here. A bit of artistic license such as leaving in the bay platform at Muncaster has been included, to enhance playability. The route is in a x2 scale environment, so all distances, dimensions and speeds are approximately double what they are in reality. Whilst there are no visible signals, the route is signalled with invisible signals, to reflect the radio signalling system in use on the line today. Whilst turntables are represented, they are not functional, as MSTS doesn’t allow it, but they have track over them and activities can start or end on them. For a history of the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway see Http://www.ravenglass-railway.co.uk/history.html Also, as befits a line of such fascinating history there is a plethora of literature on the subject. Especially recommended is ‘The Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway’ by WJK Davies from David and Charles Publishers. This extremely useful as a reference point in creating this and is a fascinating read. As a bonus, a lot of extra 15 inch gauge stock is included, some of which may or may not have appeared at Ravenglass! A range of activities are also available for free from Bubble’s Railways.

  • Digital Book Sales Catalogue.Pdf
    January 2021 The Industrial Railway Society was founded in 1949 as the Industrial Locomotive Section of the Birmingham Locomotive Club. Its earliest activity was to produce a set of regional Pocket Books listing all known industrial locomotives in those areas. Over the years the Pocket Books have expanded to become highly detailed Handbooks, and since 1969 the Society has also published the EL series, a list of all existing locos in industrial service, on Heritage Railways and in private ownership in the UK and Ireland. Literature on industrial railways was often not well catered for by general bookshops, so it soon became IRS policy to try to make available for sale (sometimes at a discount to IRS members) a range of Industrial, Narrow Gauge and Light Railway publications (including some foreign publications) which are not easily obtained in the High Street. The loss of some specialist railway bookshops in recent years (the last Ian Allan transport bookshop closed in October 2020) has made this service even more important. Because of its contacts in this specialist area the IRS also frequently obtains out of print volumes that are not easy to find, even on the Internet. This Catalogue lists those publications which were in stock in December 2020, although stocks of older (out of print) books may be low, and the titles may therefore soon become unavailable. Other railway books from main-stream publishers can often be obtained but these are NOT usually held in stock. Titles are listed by publisher, with an index of titles at the end of the Catalogue.

Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway, operates a seven-mile line, running between the Lake District coast at Ravenglass and the Dalegarth (for Boot) station, located in the shadow of England’s highest mountains. This idyllic line, often said to offer England’s most beautiful heritage railway journey, was re-gauged in 1915, from 3-feet to 15 inches. The original 3-foot gauge line was the earliest public narrow gauge railway in England, built from 1873 and typical of such works in difficult terrain, hugging the mountainside with side cutting, sharp bends and severe gradients. Ravenglass and Eskdale’s two surviving buildings from that time – the Ravenglass loco shed and Irton Road Station, are little altered from their first construction. The decision to re-gauge the line was taken by acclaimed miniature railway engineer, WJ Bassett- Lowke. He and his friend, R Proctor-Mitchell, representing Narrow Gauge Railways Ltd, acquired the line in 1915 – in the midst of World War 1 - and used it as a base for testing their model locomotives in fairly harsh operating conditions.
