Lancaster and Skipton Rail User Group Newsletter - December 2014 A ‘lesser-spotted’ Class 158 DMU № 816 waits at Skipton with the 10.34 Morecambe to Leeds service on 5th November 2014. © Gerald Townson As we reach the end of LASRUG’s 25th Anniversary year, it’s fair to suggest that there is a strong sense of optimism about the way things are developing. The government now insists that community rail has to have a much greater priority in the considerations of the train companies as they approach bidding for the new franchises, and the train companies themselves are also willing that it be so. At last we have the will; now we, the CRP and the train companies must find the way that will more quickly achieve what we have been patiently working towards for so long. Meanwhile the committee of LASRUG wish you all the Season’s Greetings and Best Wishes for 2015. NEWS FROM GARGRAVE THE NEXT NORTHERN FRANCHISE - LASRUG Consults with Arriva Rail North Ltd Back in the early 1990s, in the latter days of British Rail, the original car park adjacent to the Leeds-bound platform was In early November, Railfuture arranged for Arriva, one of the bidders for the next sold to the owner of the adjacent stone yard.

Our further ambition consultation response, travelled the line several times, understood many of the issues which our current timetable and rolling stock present and clearly reflected on the discussion held earlier in the year with the LLMCRP. We were able to emphasise the key points made in the responses of LASRUG and the LLMCRP to the Department for Transport and Rail North joint consultation, as well as highlighting possible joint developments to increase passenger numbers on the Bentham line. Arrangements are also being made for Rail User Groups in the North to meet the other two bidders, Abellio and Govia, and we are eager to speak with them too. is for two solar-powered street lights Hugh Turner to be installed, one to illuminate the footpath and the other to light the car park itself. The onset of dark winter MICHAEL WILLIAMS - A Steaming Success evenings has added to the urgency with which this is being pursued.

Subscriptions are now due and, for members who have been awaiting warm reception given by the very mixed audience. confirmation of the increase, a renewal form is enclosed.

  • The Commercial & Technical Evolution of the Ferry
    THE COMMERCIAL & TECHNICAL EVOLUTION OF THE FERRY INDUSTRY 1948-1987 By William (Bill) Moses M.B.E. A thesis presented to the University of Greenwich in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy October 2010 DECLARATION “I certify that this work has not been accepted in substance for any degree, and is not concurrently being submitted for any degree other than that of Doctor of Philosophy being studied at the University of Greenwich. I also declare that this work is the result of my own investigations except where otherwise identified by references and that I have not plagiarised another’s work”. ……………………………………………. William Trevor Moses Date: ………………………………. ……………………………………………… Professor Sarah Palmer Date: ………………………………. ……………………………………………… Professor Alastair Couper Date:……………………………. ii Acknowledgements There are a number of individuals that I am indebted to for their support and encouragement, but before mentioning some by name I would like to acknowledge and indeed dedicate this thesis to my late Mother and Father. Coming from a seafaring tradition it was perhaps no wonder that I would follow but not without hardship on the part of my parents as they struggled to raise the necessary funds for my books and officer cadet uniform. Their confidence and encouragement has since allowed me to achieve a great deal and I am only saddened by the fact that they are not here to share this latest and arguably most prestigious attainment. It is also appropriate to mention the ferry industry, made up on an intrepid band of individuals that I have been proud and privileged to work alongside for as many decades as covered by this thesis.

    183 DuNight-Ferry à Eurostar:à la recherchede la continuitéterritoriale entreLondres et le continent FromNight Ferry to Eurostar: ln searchof the territorialcontinuity betweenLondon and thecontinent Etienne AUPHAN Université de Nancy 2 UFR des Sciences Historiques et Géographiques BP 3397 - 54015 - NANCY - France Résumé : La liaison entre Londres et le continent a fait l'objet, depuis le siècle dernier, et surtout depuis 25 ans, d'une recherche toujours plus poussée de formules se rapprochant de la continuité territoriale . Pour le transport des personnes, se sont ainsi notamment succédés la formule des gares maritimes et des trains-ferries traduisant le triomphe chi couple train-bateau, les car-ferries, consacrant le règne de l'automobile , les aéroglisseurs exprimant l'exigence de vitesse, et enfin le tunnel ferroviaire qui assure une continuité territoriale presque parfaite, mais paradoxalement au profit du rail, instaurant ainsi de nouveaux rapports intermodaux, aux conséquences sans doute encore mal mesurées sur le fonctionnement de l'espace littoral et w système de transport en ·général. Mots-clés France - Royaume-Uni - Tunnel sous la Manche - Transports intermodaux - Continuité territoriale Abstract : The aim of linking London to the continent has, since the last century and above during the last 25 years , been the object of a search for ever more advanced methods getting ever closer to a land link. For the transport of people, a number of methods have succeeded each other : ferry ports and rail-ferries reflected the triumph of the train-boat partnership, the car-ferries manifested the era of the car, hovercraft expressed the need for speed and, finally, the rail tunnel which assures an almost perfect territorial link.

  • Overseas Rail-Marine Bibliography
    Filename: Dell/T43/bibovrmi.wpd Version: March 29, 2006 OVERSEAS RAIL-MARINE BIBLIOGRAPHY Compiled by John Teichmoeller With Assistance from: Ross McLeod, Phil Sims, Bob Parkinson, and Paul Lipiarski, editorial consultants. Introduction This installment is the next-to-last in our series of regional bibliographies that have covered the Great Lakes (Transfer No. 9), East Coast (Transfer No. 10 and 11), Rivers and Gulf (Transfer No. 18), Golden State [California] (Transfer No. 27) and Pacific Northwest (Transfer No. 36). The final installment, “Miscellaneous,” will be included with Transfer No. 44. It was originally our intention to begin the cycle again, reissuing and substantially upgrading the bibliographies with the additional material that has come to light. However, time and spent energy have taken their toll, so future updates will have to be in some other form, perhaps through the RMIG website. Given the global scope of this installment, I have the feeling that this is the least comprehensive of any sections compiled so far, especially with regard to global developments in the last thirty years. I have to believe there is a much more extensive literature, even in English, of rail-marine material overseas than is presented here. Knowing the “train ferry” (as they are called outside of North America) operations in Europe, Asia and South America, there must be an extensive body of non-English literature about these of which I am ignorant. However, as always, we publish what we have. Special thanks goes to Bob Parkinson for combing 80+ years of English technical journals. Moreover, I have included some entries here that may describe auto ferries and not car ferries, but since I have not seen some of the articles I am unsure; I have shared Bob’s judgements in places.

  • The Future for Interurban Passenger Transport
    The future for interurban passenger transport M a d r i d Bringing citizens closer together 1 8 t h International Symposium on Transport Economics and Policy The future for interurban passenger transport Bringing citizens closer together Economic growth, trade and the concentration of population in large cities will intensify demand for interurban transport services. Concurrently, the need to manage environmental impacts effectively will increase. How successful we are in coping with demand will depend on our ability to innovate, to manage congestion, and The future to improve the quality of transport services. Technological and regulatory innovation will shape the future of transport. The Symposium brought together leading transport researchers from for interurban around the world to explore the future for interurban passenger transport. A first set of papers investigates what drives demand for interurban passenger transport and infers how it may evolve in the passenger future. The remaining papers investigate transport policy issues that emerge as key challenges: when to invest in high-speed rail, how to regulate to ensure efficient operation, how to assign infrastructure to transport different types of users, and how to control transport’s environmental footprint by managing modal split and improving modal performance.

  • This Essay Will Look at the Midland Railways Services to from Heysham
    British Railway Shipping 1948-1984 A Nationalised Success Story Jeremy Hartill MA by Research University of York Railway Studies November 2014 ABSTRACT This dissertation will look at British Railways shipping activities under the British Transport Commission (BTC) and British Railways Board British (BRB). At the time of nationalisation in 1948 the BTC took control of the extensive shipping activities of the British railway companies. The research done for this dissertation suggests the BTC was the largest operator of passenger ships in Europe in the early post-war years. Academic research in this field is very limited, indeed the whole coastal shipping scene has been somewhat neglected. What has been done suggests that the “railway ships” were outdated, inefficient and unprofitable. Richard Pryke in the Journal of Fiscal Studies considered the BRB shipping activities as a failure compared to Townsend, a private enterprise operation. A number of commentators also highlight the advent of the Townsend car ferries in leading the way forward for ferry services from the UK. What this dissertation will show by looking at a number of aspects of this sector is that this was not the case. Most of the studies and commentator’s have not compared like for like and that will be highlighted. The financial performance of the shipping sector will be examined to show that overall it was a very profitable operation. The equipment used in terms of the fleet and harbour facilities will show that over the period under consideration the BTC/BRB fleet moved forward in a manner comparable with other operators in the similar circumstances.
