  • Southern Gateway Project Consolidated Planning Brief
    Southern Gateway Project Bishops Lydeard Project Board Consolidated Site Development Brief Introduction The Bishops Lydeard Site Development Group has been working for 12 months on the proposals for what is now known as the Southern Gateway Project. With the appointment of external consultants together with a project manager, the Site Development Group now needs to move into Project Board mode to take the work forward .. This Consolidated Site Development Brief is based on: Strategic objectives as set out in the PLC Corporate Plan Strategic objectives agreed by the WSST Trustees and WSRA Trustees An agreed direction for the PLC requirements for Brunel House Replacement An updated position on the infrastructure requirements associated with Taunton to Bishops Lydeard proposals Discussions with Taunton Deane Borough Council Discussions at the BL Site Development Plan Group The paper therefore forms the basis for final working planning brief for the Southern Gateway Project Group. Not all issues have been fully covered as yet and conclusions reached as to proposed alternatives and preferred options. Consequently, there will be iterations required in relation to individual projects. However, the Project Board is satisfied that the work has reached the point with sufficient agreement between Project Board members such that this document represents the baseline brief from which the Site Master Plan will be prepared. Strategic Overview and Objectives The consolidated brief outlines strategic proposals for the long term development of Bishops Lydeard. This paper considers the issue from the point of view of an integrated project designed to optimise the benefits for the railway as a whole. It also considers the full development of the site as a framework within which the detail can be planned.

  • Working of Trains Generally
    WORKING OF TRAINS GENERALLY CHAPTER IV WORKING OF TRAINS GENERALLY A. Timing and Running of Trains 4.01. Standard time - The working of trains between stations shall be regulated by the standard time prescribed by the Government of India, which shall be transmitted daily to all the principal stations of the Railway at 16.00 hours in the manner prescribed. S.R.4.01-1. (a) Control offices shall transmit the correct time at 16.00 hours daily to all the stations on controlled sections to enable the stations to adjust the station clocks. The clocks provided in the control offices must be synchronised with the time signal given by All India Radio at 8.00 hrs., 13.30 hours and 21.00 hours. (b) On the non-controlled sections all stations will cease to work on circuits at 15.57 hours and the 16.00 hours time signal shall be transmitted by the controlling stations to all the stations in the section. (c) Station Masters shall record any variation in time in the Train Signal Register. If the office clock shows right time this should also be recorded. At a station where no Train Signal Register is maintained, a separate Time Register must be maintained. (d) On non-controlled sections the Railway Servant, on resuming duty in an office or cabin with block instruments must check his time with the stations on either side and enter the discrepancies in the Train Signal Register. On Controlled areas, time must be checked with the Section Controller when coming on duty. 4.02.

  • The Idea Behind Building a Railway Into the Middle of Trinidad in The
    THE NATIONAL TRUST OF TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO Heritage Sites Register articles – Contribution from Glen Beadon Caparo Train Station and water Tank (29 July 2019) Note from Glen Beadon: I recommend the name of this site be changed to: “CAPARO RAILWAY STATION AND WATER TANK” Address: Caparo Valley Brasso Road Town/City: Caparo Region: Couva – Tabaquite – Talparo Site Type: Cultural Heritage Ownership: Public Public Accessibility: Full Access Listing Status: Stage 2 – Identification & Inclusion of Heritage Site on Inventory of Properties Cultural Community: British Site Features: Railway Sites History of Caparo Railway Station on the Caparo Valley Railway Line (By Glen Beadon): The idea behind building a railway into the middle of Trinidad in the 1890s was a speculative move by the Colonial Government to sell crown property, encourage settlement, exploit natural resources and boost cultivation of virgin but very fertile lands. The principal objective, as described by the Legislative Council, was “The opening up of the cultivation of some of the best lands in the Colony”. It was also intended by means of the railway to afford means of transport to the owners of already cultivated lands lying beyond the easy reach of the existing main roads and railways. It was recognised that a railway through the Caparo Valley would not be financially lucrative for many years until the area had further developed. The new line was to be an investment for future prosperity. The first part of the line was 15 miles 5 chains in length and cost £118,466 (about £13.4M in today’s money). Work began on 26 March of 1896.

Editorial Yet again, the Digest has been well supported by authors who are keen to share modern techniques to build models of the pre-grouping period. Despite, or possibly because of the period modelled, various IT based approaches have been used to tackle the problems of modelling Victorian prototypes. In this edition, there is the follow up to the item in Issue 2, in which the patterns for a Craven carriage were generated on a Cameo Duplicutter. There are two very different approaches to 3D printing and there is more on the visualisation of Lewes station before its rebuilding. I find these new approaches both refreshing and exciting, as they add whole new dimensions to the hobby and offer new opportunities. This is in no way to denigrate the more traditional skills, which may involve decorating the streets of Vintner’s Yard with horse poo, a dollop at a time.

  • A History of Tyseley Station and Goods Yard
    A History of Tyseley Station and Goods Yard A colourised postcard showing the Great Western Railway’s Tyseley Station under construction in 1906. Although the Great Western Railway line to Birmingham opened on 1st October 1852, Tyseley station was a latter addition and only opened on 1st October 1906. The GWR Magazine records that Tyseley’s first Station Master, Mr F Revening transferred to there from Henley-in-Arden Station. According to GWR Service Timetable No.12 (dated October 1906), Tyseley station was served by the following weekday passenger services: Down Train commences Arrives Birmingham Up Leaves Birmingham Snow Hill Destination of Train Trains Snow Hill Trains 7:20 7:00 Knowle & Dorridge station 7:32 7:21 7:15 7:36 Knowle & Dorridge station 8:30 8:10 Knowle & Dorridge station 8:44 8:43 8:32 (7:45 Wolverhampton) 9:32 Leamington station 8:36 7:50 Henley-in-Arden terminus 8:52 11:51 11:40 (10:55 Wolverhampton) 12:40 Leamington station 8:51 8:40 Solihull station 9:05 13:24 13:15 13:36 Solihull station 9:26 9:15 Solihull station 9:40 14:27 14:15 14:39 Solihull station 11:02 10:10 Leamington station 11:16 15:17 15:05 (14:20 Stourbridge Junc) 16:07 Leamington station 12:09 11:20 Leamington station 12:21 16:27 16:15 17:06 Henley-in-Arden terminus 14:12 14:00 Solihull station 14:25 17:01 16:50 17:12 Solihull station 14:22 14:01 Knowle & Dorridge station 14:35 17:31 17:20 17:42 Solihull station 14:39 13:40 Leamington station 14:50 18:11 18:00 (17:05 Stourbridge Junc) 18:31 Knowle & Dorridge station 15:34 11:10 Paddington terminus 15:47

  • Rail Road Terms
    Glossary of terms used in these pages English-Spanish Spanish-English Spanish, like English, is not a single homogeneous language. Different words can be used in different places to express the identical concept. The same word can have very different meanings in different countries. For instance, the word hacienda in Argentina (in the context of railways) means livestock; however, its usual meaning in Mexico is something like stately home. Technical terms may be specific to individual railways. Where the word is specific, but not necessarily uniquely, to a country or railway there is an abbreviation indicating the source of the word.
