PDF Booklet: 118-1 2 North Eastern Railway: The Buses 1903-1923 In 1898 a Light Railway Order was granted for the construction of a railway between Beverley and North Frodingham (the North Holderness Light Railway) in the East Riding of Yorkshire. The North Eastern Railway (NER) immediately acquired the responsibility for the construction and the passing of their Act of 1899 made them liable for the completion of the line within five years. As time dragged on, the cost of building the railway began to rise and finally it was decided to abandon the project, much to the dismay of the locals. As a result a tramway was proposed instead, but the costs of constructing a tramway were almost as high as constructing the railway, so a bus service was suggested as an alternative.

To run on this new gauge, three old London County Council tram cars THROUGH THE YEARS arrived by train to operate the service on the new track.

  • Transport and Technology
    Transport and Technology Collections 1 Introduction The Transport and Technology Collections reflect the leading role played by Glasgow and the West of Scotland in advances made in scientific enquiry and industrial production. The technology collections were first developed for the opening of the City Industrial Museum in 1870. This was intended to highlight the output of Glasgow’s industries and included samples and models from the important chemical, textile, locomotive and shipbuilding firms in the area. There were also examples of innovations in the making of optical and scientific instruments and communications technology. The museum displayed Glasgow’s civic pride in its scientific and industrial achievements and provided a prestigious front window for its products. It also played an important didactic role in teaching Glasgow’s young citizens about engineering and technology. Many of the collections were loaned and often replaced by newer more impressive exhibits. Even items formally acquired into this collection were regarded with the same spirit of renewal and were often discarded in favour of more representative examples of modern industry. Although much has been lost there is still much of great interest that has survived from the early days of the museum. This is partly as a result of industrial failure when loaned material from failed companies was retained and eventually assimilated into the core collections. Such a direct relationship between the city’s industries and the museum collections gives them an added degree of significance. This is particularly true of the outstanding ship and marine engineering models. The Clyde was at the forefront of revolutionary change in the shipbuilding industry so not only is the collection a truly representative sample of the Clyde’s output, it also represents an important period of ship design and building that is unsurpassed anywhere in the world.

Newry and Mourne Museum Collection Introduction This exhibition and accompanying booklet looks at aspects of transport in the Newry and Mourne area over the centuries. It begins by examining the importance of water transport in the Mesolithic period and how transport by land became more important in later prehistoric times. The influence of the establishment of churches and monasteries in the Early Christian period, and of political developments in the Middle Ages on the Bessbrook tram at Millvale crossroads in April 1940. formation of the road network is highlighted. The Photograph by W.A. Camwell from The Bessbrook and Newry Tramway (The Oakwood Press, 1979). exhibition also reveals how routeways established during these periods continue in use today. Travel by sea is seen as underpinning the growth of Newry as a wealthy mercantile centre in the 18th and 19th centuries. The impact of the arrival of the railways in the area in the mid 19th century, especially with regard to the emergence of Warrenpoint and Rostrevor as holiday destinations is stressed. The exhibition also explores how the introduction of motorised vehicles in the 20th century revolutionised transport for everyone.
