Railway Employee Records for Colorado Volume Iii
RAILWAY EMPLOYEE RECORDS FOR COLORADO VOLUME III By Gerald E. Sherard (2005) When Denver’s Union Station opened in 1881, it saw 88 trains a day during its gold-rush peak. When passenger trains were a popular way to travel, Union Station regularly saw sixty to eighty daily arrivals and departures and as many as a million passengers a year. Many freight trains also passed through the area. In the early 1900s, there were 2.25 million railroad workers in America. After World War II the popularity and frequency of train travel began to wane. The first railroad line to be completed in Colorado was in 1871 and was the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad line between Denver and Colorado Springs. A question we often hear is: “My father used to work for the railroad. How can I get information on Him?” Most railroad historical societies have no records on employees. Most employment records are owned today by the surviving railroad companies and the Railroad Retirement Board. For example, most such records for the Union Pacific Railroad are in storage in Hutchinson, Kansas salt mines, off limits to all but the lawyers. The Union Pacific currently declines to help with former employee genealogy requests. However, if you are looking for railroad employee records for early Colorado railroads, you may have some success. The Colorado Railroad Museum Library currently has 11,368 employee personnel records. These Colorado employee records are primarily for the following railroads which are not longer operating. Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad (AT&SF) Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad employee records of employment are recorded in a bound ledger book (record number 736) and box numbers 766 and 1287 for the years 1883 through 1939 for the joint line from Denver to Pueblo.

The Rule of Reason Doctrine in European Court of Justice Jurisprudence on Direct Taxation
canadian tax journal / revue fiscale canadienne (2008) vol. 56, no 1, 67 - 140 The Rule of Reason Doctrine in European Court of Justice Jurisprudence on Direct Taxation Elie Roth* P r é c i s Dans cet article, l’auteur fait un examen critique de la doctrine de la justification élaborée par la Cour européenne de justice dans sa jurisprudence sur l’imposition directe. Cette doctrine permet de déterminer si, et dans quelles circonstances, une mesure interne dont on juge qu’elle limite l’exercice d’une ou de plusieurs libertés fondamentales garanties par le traité sur l’uE, ou dont l’effet ou l’application est discriminatoire, peut être justifiée par des motifs d’intérêt public. L’auteur donne d’abord un aperçu de la doctrine de la justification, ou « règle de raison », élaborée par la Cour et met l’accent sur son application dans les causes portant sur l’imposition directe. La Cour a toujours interprété de façon très étroite les restrictions à l’exercice des libertés fondamentales contenues dans le traité sur l’uE et l’argument de l’intérêt public pour justifier une mesure fiscale interne restrictive ou discriminatoire. L’auteur laisse entendre que le principe de la non-discrimination élaboré par la Cour dans sa jurisprudence sur l’imposition directe favorise une interprétation plus large des motifs de justification potentiels dont elle a tenu compte à ce jour dans sa doctrine de la règle de raison, et il fait valoir que certains de ses récents jugements pourraient former un cadre en vue d’une interprétation plus pondérée de la règle de raison où la doctrine de la justification est élargie de façon à inclure une analyse des principes de politiques fiscales internationales pertinentes.

Direttissimi “Freccia del Sud” / “Treno del sole” Tra gli anni Cinquanta e Sessanta le FS operavano un gran numero di treni a lunga percorrenza che collegavano le principali città in- dustriali del Nord con la Sicilia.

De Beurs Van Nürnberg 2010
DE BEURS VAN NÜRNBERG 2010 D 1. ENKELE ECHO’S door Guy Bridoux Vertaling Luc Blommaerts en Philippe Callaert De organisatoren van de 61ste Messe stelden vast dat het aantal bezoekers zich rond 76.000 eenheden stabiliseert. Deze klaarblijkelijke stabiliteit verbergt echter een evolutie bij de aard van de deelnemers: het is een feit dat in ons domein de Hall 4A plaats heeft gegeven aan firma’s die er voorheen niet aanwezig waren, omdat de ingenomen ruimte door de groep Roco/Fleischmann, door Piko en andere gereduceerd was en omdat artisanale firma’s en producenten van toebehoren zoals Titan en Zimo niet aanwezig waren. Een sector die erg actief blijft is deze van de radiobesturing, waarbij de firma Stadlbauer één van de acht prijzen voor innovatie ontving voor zijn programma « Carrera Digital », terwijl de Chinezen een sterke voorkeur hadden voor de radiobesturing van helikopters. In andere domeinen zijn de artisanale producten zo goed als verdwenen, de kerstdecoratie is sterk ingekrompen en heeft plaats gemaakt voor carnavalartikelen. De sector van de parascolaire artikelen is uitgebreid, net zoals de aziatische deelnemers, met een Chinees overwicht. Betreffende de situatie van Märklin, die vorig jaar bij de opening van de Messe in het brandpunt van de belangstelling stond, dient gesteld dat de optimisten gelijk hebben gekregen, t.t.z. dat eenmaal gereorganiseerd, de firma opnieuw winstgevend is geworden, wat het de voorlopige beheerder toch nog niet mogelijk heeft gemaakt om een nieuwe investeerder aan te trekken. In 2009 heeft de firma alle buitenlandse filialen gesloten , behalve het Zwitserse. De integratie van Roco en Fleischmann onder de koepel van Modell- eisenbahn München zet zich verder, wat sedert januari voor België geleid heeft tot een gemeenschappelijke distributie via T2M.

European Train Names: a Historic Outline Christian Weyers
ONOMÀSTICA BIBLIOTECA TÈCNICA DE POLÍTICA LINGÜÍSTICA European Train Names: a Historic Outline* Christian Weyers DOI: 10.2436/15.8040.01.201 Abstract This paper gives a first overview of the onomastic category of train names, searches to classify the corpus and reviews different stages of their productivity. Apart from geographical names (toponyms, choronyms, compass directions) generally indicating points of origin and destination of the trains in question, a considerable number of personal names have entered this category, of classical literary authors, musicians and scientists, but also of many fictional or non-fictional characters taken from literature or legendary traditions. In some cases also certain symbolic attributes of these persons and finally even heraldic figures have given their names to trains. In terms of their functionality, train names originally were an indicator of exclusiveness and high grade of travel quality, but they developed gradually, as they dispersed over the European continent, into a rather unspecific, generalized appellation, also for regional and local trains. After two periods of prosperity after 1950, the privatisation of railway companies starting in the 1990s had again a very positive effect on the category, as the number of named trains initially reached a new record in this decade. ***** The first train names appeared in England in the 1860s in addition to names for steam locomotives, and on two different levels. The Special Scotch Express between London King’s Cross and Edinburgh (inaugurated in 1862) was called by the public The Flying Scotsman from the 1870s, but it succeeded as the official name not before 1924. Also the names of the German diesel trainsets Der Fliegende Hamburger and Der Fliegende Kölner were colloquial name creations, as were the Train Bleu and the Settebello operated from 1922 and 1953 but officially named in 1947 and 1958, respectively.
