  • Heyside Signals and Locomotives Three Etched Brass Footbridge Kits
    The Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway Society The Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway Society sections; Cynric did the CAD work, and a short while later, I was presented with Heyside signals and locomotives three etched brass footbridge kits. Since the article on the 7mm scale layout Heyside in Magazine 251 there have been continuing The footbridge made up exactly as developments, both on the signalling side and in additions to the locomotive fleet, as its owner intended, fitting the space perfectly, RICHARD LAMBERT, who also took the layout photographs, explains… and providing a sound base to mount the signals. The signals themselves are made from wood, with etched and cast components from Scale Signal Supply for the fittings. The decking was made of copper-clad strip, stanchions from nickel- coated brass lace pins and the various brackets and smoke shields from brass sheet. The operating wire is 0.4mm nickel silver and the operation is by servos mounted under the baseboard. The gantry This was felt to be the signature piece of the layout with five dolls and nine arms. It is based on the gantry outside Victoria East Junction signal box and illustrations in the Society’s Focus on Signalling (No.3). The legs are made of wood, with brass ‘X’ pieces, while the support for the decking is four strips of brass. The decking itself is made from 84 P4 copper-clad sleepers, while the spandrels were commissioned by me from Scale Signal Supply. The dolls and hardware were built as before, but it was in the operation of the signals that most thought had to be given.

When, ten days ago, the first copy of the " Evolution of the Steam Locomotive" was ready for sale, I did not expect to be called upon to write a preface for a new edition before 240 hours had expired. The author cannot but be gratified to know that the whole of the extremely large first edition was exhausted practically upon publication, and since many would-be readers are still unsupplied, the demand for another edition is pressing. Under these circumstances but slight modifications have been made in the original text, although additional particulars and illustrations have been inserted in the new edition. The new matter relates to the locomotives of the North Staffordshire, London., Tilbury, and Southend, Great Western, and London and North Western Railways.

  • To Chicago in .Eighteen Hours. ~2,I
    June, 1884.] To Chicago in .Eighteen Hours. ~2,I 317. The discrepancy here, which is due to the same causes above explained, is much less than in the case of the earth, and this seems to show that if at present the planet jupiter is not perfectly fluid through- out, it is yielding enough to obey in a certain measure the forces which tend to decrease its ellipticity, a conclusion which is in perfect~ accordance with the observed physical conditions of this planet, and otherwise gives strengt}~ to our assumptions. TO CHICAGO IN EIGHTEEN HOURS. By ROBERT GmMSrlAW, M:. E. [Read at the Stated Meeting of tile FRANKLIN INSTITUTE, April, 1884.] I have the honor this evening to submit to the Franklin Institute the outlines of a bold, but feasible project for making the regular run between New York or Philadelphia and Chicago, in eighteen hours, with comfort, sa/hty, and cheapness. At present, the transit occupies from 27 to 37 hours, according to the route and the character of the train. To accomplish the desired result, necessitates changes in engin% train, method, and permanent way. Naturally, the limits of this paper do not permit me to rehearse all the details of the proposed selections and innovations; but the most important of them will be outlined, as a basis for discussion. This paper is the outcome of a discussion started by rne in the Ameri- can Journal of Raibzay Appliances in December last; I have no patents, to advertise and no axes to grind. Many of the suggestions in this paper arc mine, others have been contributed by eminent mechanics, practically familiar with the building, repairing and running of high speed locomotives.

  • Derby Locomotive Drawings List.Xlsx
    Derby Locomotive Drawing Lists Description: The collection consists of approximately 6000 drawings, plus 135 registers and lists. They cover the period from 1874 to 1961. The drawings relate to the construction, modification and rebuilding of locomotives of the Midland Railway, London Midland & Scottish Railway and British Railways, with occasional drawings from other railway companies and contractors. The drawings are mainly on linen with some blueprints, as well as Ozalid and paper copies. Each drawing has a number and/ or a letter code. These letter and number codes also relate to the registers, schedules and lists. The significance of these codes is explained in the ‘System of Arrangement’ section below. System of Arrangement: The drawings are arranged in the archive in five series and are listed as such in the catalogue. 1. Main Series. These are organised by drawing number in numerical sequence. Most drawings have a two number date prefix that usually relates to the year in which the drawing was produced, but may sometimes relate to the year the drawing was entered in the register. 2. D Numerical series. These are also organised by drawing number, but prefixed by the section reference, such as D1, D2, D3, D4 or D5. 3. Diagrams and Sketches. These are also organised by drawing number, but prefixed according to the section reference code, such as DS, DD, S, D or ED. 4. BR Standard Drawings from Derby. These drawings are proper to the main collection of British Rail Standard Drawings, but were found with the main Derby Works sequences. They are numerical with the prefix SL/DE.

  • 1. Please Read the Instructions Thoroughly Before Running for the First Time
    1 ACCUCRAFT UK LTD Unit 4, Long Meadow Industrial Estate Pontrilas, Herefordshire. HR2 0UA Tel: 01981 241380 [email protected] OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS L&B YEO, EXE & TAW MANUAL CONTROL SAFETY FIRST All our locomotives are safe to run, and will give many hours of pleasure, providing the following safety procedures are followed: - 1. Please read the instructions thoroughly before running for the first time. 2. Never let the engine run out of water. 3. When refilling the gas, do not have any naked flame present, and NO SMOKING! 4. Do not pick up the engine by the bodywork, chimney or boiler, especially when hot. 5. Only pick up the engine by the buffer beams and, when hot, use old gloves or a cloth. 6. Do not stand over the chimney. Ejected boiling water or steam may cause serious injury. 7. Do not open the smoke box door while the engine is alight. 8. Constant supervision of the boiler water level is imperative as the gas CAN outlast the water. Failure to do so will be treated as misuse and is not covered by the warranty. The boiler will require topping up about every 10 minutes. 2 General Hints As with all operating machinery, whether model or full size, wear will occur. In the model steam locomotive much can be done to help prolong its life and decrease the amount of time required in the workshop for servicing. Keep the engine as clean as possible, and the motion free from dirt and garden debris. The valve gear, axles and crank pins should be oiled sparingly with light oil, e.g.

    LNWR G2 0-8-0 Heavy Goods Engine By Meshtools Contents Section Page Number History 1 Technical data 2 Controls 3 Advice 27 Scenarios 28 Credits 29 History The LNWR (London and North Western Railway) G2s were the last in the line of LNWR 0-8-0s whose lineage dates back to 1892. The G2s were a series of 60 new build engines being built from 1921 to 1922 under C.J. Bowen Cooke at Crewe works and were in essence an improved version of the earlier G1. They featured a redesigned and strengthened direct acting joy valve gear, strengthened frames, large axles and axle boxes and a higher boiler pressure of 175psi over the G1’s 160psi. The G1s themselves were an amalgamation of rebuilt and upgraded earlier classes along with a handful of new built engines (and so comprised of members of the A, B, C, C2X, D, E, F and G classes). Over time most of the G1s would be rebuilt into the class known as the G2A which raised the boiler pressure to 175psi, strengthened the motion and often replaced the indirect acting joy valve gear with direct acting gear. Combined the G2, G1 and G2A class were comprised of around 502 members making it the 6th largest class of locomotives to operate in the UK and 4th of the LMS classes (only being beaten by Black fives, 4Fs and 8Fs). This means that the LNWR 0-8-0s became something of a quasi- standard heavy freight engine class of the LMS, something that the higher ups in the LMS would only begrudgingly admit, although a lot of rebuilding and improvements to the classes were unusually done under William Stanier of all people! The G2s could practically be found on all types of trains on the LMS and under BR, from heavy mineral, coal and goods trains, fast vacuum fitted express goods, pickup goods, banking, piloting, shunting, snow plough duties, stopping passenger trains, excursions, railtour specials and even express passenger trains, they did the lot.
