  • Gourock-Dunoon Ferry Service: Feasibility Study of a Future Passenger and Vehicle Service with the Vehicle Portion Being Non-Subsidised
    PROJECT Gourock-Dunoon Ferry Service: Feasibility Study of a Future Passenger and Vehicle Service with the Vehicle Portion being non-Subsidised Funding: National (United Kingdom) Duration: Nov 2012 - Jul 2013 Status: Complete with results Background & policy context: Until July 2011, Cowal Ferries operated a passenger and vehicle ferry service across the Firth of Clyde between Gourock and Dunoon town centres. Since then, the Argyll Ferries town centre service has carried foot-passengers only, the service being provided by two passenger ferries. The Gourock-Dunoon route is the busiest ferry crossing in Scotland and the two existing ferry services (Argyll Ferries and Western Ferries’ passenger and vehicle service) provide a key link between Cowal / Dunoon and the central belt. Objectives: In November 2012 MVA Consultancy, together with The Maritime Group (International) Limited, were commissioned by Transport Scotland to carry out a feasibility study on future ferry services between Dunoon and Gourock town centres. The overarching aim of the study was to determine the feasibility of a service with the vehicle-carrying portion of the service operating without subsidy and the passenger- carrying portion being subsidised in a manner compatible with EU law. Other funding sources: Transport Scotland Organisation: Transport Scotland Key Results: There are a range of key potential 'upside' aspects (eg lower vessel GT, pier & berthing dues reduced through negotiation, Western Ferries retrenchment) and 'downside' aspects (eg higher GT, higher crewing levels and competitive response from Western Ferries) which could affect the service and the balance of these would be crucial in determining the ultimate feasibility of the town centre passenger and vehicle service.

  • Railways List
    A guide and list to a collection of Historic Railway Documents www.railarchive.org.uk to e mail click here December 2017 1 Since July 1971, this private collection of printed railway documents from pre grouping and pre nationalisation railway companies based in the UK; has sought to expand it‟s collection with the aim of obtaining a printed sample from each independent railway company which operated (or obtained it‟s act of parliament and started construction). There were over 1,500 such companies and to date the Rail Archive has sourced samples from over 800 of these companies. Early in 2001 the collection needed to be assessed for insurance purposes to identify a suitable premium. The premium cost was significant enough to warrant a more secure and sustainable future for the collection. In 2002 The Rail Archive was set up with the following objectives: secure an on-going future for the collection in a public institution reduce the insurance premium continue to add to the collection add a private collection of railway photographs from 1970‟s onwards provide a public access facility promote the collection ensure that the collection remains together in perpetuity where practical ensure that sufficient finances were in place to achieve to above objectives The archive is now retained by The Bodleian Library in Oxford to deliver the above objectives. This guide which gives details of paperwork in the collection and a list of railway companies from which material is wanted. The aim is to collect an item of printed paperwork from each UK railway company ever opened.

Caledonian Railway 65' Brake Composite Diagram 103 Director : J. Smellie Company No. SC137795 VAT No. 596951084 Part 1 Prototype Notes Section 1 Overview and Numbering In 1906 the Caledonian Railway built some very fine non-corridor coaches mainly for use on Edinburgh to Glasgow (via Shotts) trains. They were also used on some of the prestigious Clyde Coast services. The exception was a batch of 6 Brake composites D 1 03 which were slip coaches whose use was covered in a later section. These coaches were all 65’ long with the exception of the full thirds which were of necessity 68’ long in order to fit in a full 11 compartments. Numbering, withdrawal dates and other details, which have been gleaned from the ‘Coaching and Non-Passenger Coaching Stock Register’ published by the Caledonian Railway Association in 2001, are given in the accompanying tables. The Caledonian Railway Diagram books were introduced in 1898, one for “Modem Wagons” and a second for “Carriages, Vans & Trucks”. These are now generally referred to as the Large Diagram Books. A second, pocket sized version was also introduced and continuously updated throughout the Caledonian era.
