The completion coincided with the finalising of arrangements made to greet the many visitors expected to arrive between 13-25 July to watch the Open Golf Championships being hosted at the nearby Hoylake course. The refurbishment project was designed to complement the station’s existing 'art- deco' structure which was the result of the last rebuild in 1938 leading to it being made a Grade 2 listed building.

  • Recovering the Popular Past: the Beamish Open-Air Museum in Its British Context John Walton
    Recovering the Popular Past: the Beamish Open-Air Museum in its British Context John Walton. This paper may seem somewhat paradoxical in the context of the symposium, because it deals with a museum project that deliberately marginalized and finally sold off its ‘great house’, while retaining and presenting to the public the two farmhouses that were on the site, and incorporating an array of other domestic and industrial buildings (including a cluster of coal miners’ cottages and the surface buildings and machinery of an actual coal mine) into a complex site which has grown during more than thirty years to occupy over three hundred acres. The text of the paper as presented here is an adaptation, with some shared text, of Chapter 6 of The Playful Crowd: Pleasure Places in the Twentieth Century, a book that I co-authored with Gary Cross in 2005; but the research on the North of England Open Air Museum at Beamish, in County Durham, and its interpretation in the British context, is my own.1 The later years of the twentieth century saw the rise of the open-air museum of industrial and social history in Britain. Its range of artefacts and reconstructions from a documented past laid claim to scholarly accuracy and historical authenticity in ways that commercial theme-parks did not choose to emulate. A significant British pioneer in this field was the open-air museum at Beamish in County Durham, in the old industrial north- east of England. Seeking to represent a relatively recent industrial past, much of which was still within living memory, Beamish rode the wave of interest in industrial archaeology that grew out the work of L.T.C.

  • Names in Multi-Lingual
    Richard Coates, England 209 A Natural History of Proper Naming in the Context of Emerging Mass Production: The Case of British Railway Locomotives before 1846 Richard Coates England Abstract The early history of railway locomotives in Britain is marked by two striking facts. The first is that many were given proper names, even where there was no objective need to distinguish them in such a way. The second is that those names tended strongly to suggest essential attributes of the machines themselves, sometimes real as in the case of Puffing Billy, or metaphorical or mythologized as in the cases of Rocket and Vulcan. However when, before long, locomotives came to be produced to standard types, namegiving remained the norm for at least some types but the names themselves tended to be typed, and naturally in a less constrained way than earlier ones. The later onymic types veered sharply away from being literally or metaphorically descriptive. The sources of these second-order onymic types are of some interest, both culturally and anthropologically, and some types tended to be of very long currency in Britain. This paper explores the early history of namegiving in an underexplored area, and proposes a general model for the evolution of name-bestowal practices. *** In this paper, I offer an analysis of the names given to steam railway locomotives in Britain between the creation of the first such machine in 1803–4 and the year 1846, chosen semi- arbitrarily as the cut-off date because of the introduction in 1845–6 of the innovative engines designed by Thomas Crampton.

  • Industrial Railway Record
    INDUSTRIAL RAILWAY RECORD The Quarterly Journal of the INDUSTRIAL RAILWAY SOCIETY COMBINED INDEX SECOND EDITION Volumes 1 to 16 1962 – 2007 RECORD No.1 to No.189 Assembled & Edited by Vic Bradley On behalf of the Combo Index Production Team for the benefit of all readers of this magazine. CORRECTIONS, GLITCHES, ERRORS and OMISSIONS are kept to a minimum but may still inevitably occur in a work of this nature. If you spot anything that you think needs attention, PLEASE DO SEND details of this to us ideally by email addressed to v.bradley[at]virgin.net www.irsociety.co.uk IRRNDX20.doc updated 22-Mar-2008 INTRODUCTION and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This “Combo Index” has been assembled by combining the contents of the sixteen separate indexes originally created, for each individual volume, over a period of some 45 years by a number of different people each using different technologies. Only in recent times have computers been used for indexing but, even for these, the computer files could not be traced with the exception of those for volumes 14 to 16. It has therefore been necessary to create digital versions of 13 original indexes using “Optical Character Recognition” (OCR), which has not proved easy due to the relatively poor print, and extremely small text (font) size, of some of the indexes in particular. Thus the OCR results have required extensive proof-reading. Very fortunately, a team of volunteers to assist in the project appeared out of the E-mail Group Internet Chat Site which is hosted by the IRS, and a special thankyou is certainly due to Richard Bowen, David Kitching, Martin Murray, Ken Scanes and John Scotford who each handled OCR and proofing of several indexes, to complete digital recovery of the individual published index texts for Volumes 1 to 13.

  • A Little Light in the Darkness the Life and Times of John Buddle
    1 A Little Light in the Darkness The Life and Times of John Buddle By David Kidd 2 A A Little Light in the Darkness The Life and Times of John Buddle Mining Engineer, Scientist and Local Hero 1773 - 1843 By David Kidd 3 This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution- NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported License. To view a copy of this license, visit http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc- nd/3.0/deed.en_US. 4 Abstract John Buddle was a witness to history. His Journals and Diary contain accounts of the development of railways, terrible pit disasters, the building of the new port of Seaham Harbour, and shed new light on the early history of iron shipbuilding on Tyneside. They also tell the story of his love for his sister Ann and of his stormy relationship with the aristocratic Durham Coalowner Lord Londonderry. This book is a snapshot of Buddle and his world, it tells the story of the great and mundane events of his life in his words, and makes his diaries available for the first time to a wider readership. Buddle is now almost forgotten but in his own day he was a celebrity, a local hero, and he was at the centre of the development of the safety lamp, the steam locomotive, and the foundation of the first iron shipyard on Tyneside. The diaries also contain much of human interest. The story of the marriage of Charles Steward who later inherited the title of Lord Londonderry to the Durham coal heiress Frances Anne Vane Tempest could have come from the pages of one of the great Nineteenth Century novels.

Peter had been ill but at that time was in remission from cancer. We were talking about Economic History and in particular the events and linkages of events pertaining to the Industrial Revolution in Britain in the 18th and 19th centuries. Peter was intending to take early retirement, and he and Jan had already planned a trip to the UK for the summer of 2012. Peter expressed a desire to see some of the places where key events in the Industrial Revolution had taken place. This desire struck a real chord with me as being very similar to the thoughts which might have occurred to the enquiring mind of a 17th/18th century scholar who would want to go and take a look and see what could be learnt. Peter was having difficulty drawing the information together so I said I would draft a proposed schedule for him. I am glad that I didn’t leave this too long; as the cancer returned over that Christmas and Peter died in February 2012.
