I^ I., Iji .r !•,.!• 1 i rl • I . .: ! 1 In mid-October, 1986, this was the scene west of Pickering, where the erstwhile GO-ALRT line was being constructed, requiring two temporary bridges under CN's York Sub. (MacMillan Yd. access line). The bridge, far right, carries the access line across Hwy. 401. ... mi. --John D. Thompson DECEMBER 1986 3 A RAILWAY MUSEUM FOR ZIMBABWE By Sandy Worthen It is easy to understand why railways developed so rapidly in England, ttfe land of their birth, in the first half of the 19th cet|tury- And so it is quite logical that one of the world's finest railway museums, the National Museum at York, England, should have been established at an early date. When George Stephenson's LOCOMOTION hauled the first steam powered train on any public railway in the world on Sept. 27, 1825, from Shildon to Stockton-Quay, with 10 loaded coal trucks, 21 waggons fitted with temporary seats and a solitary passenger coach named EXPERIMENT, it was certain that, one day, someone would have the idea of saving some railway equipment to commemorate this historic event. -

NG 15, Loco No. 134
NG 15, loco no. 134 Last repair book whilst in use by SAR from Humewood Road Mostly translated from Afrikaans, by Martin Coombs, with help from members of the SAR-L e-mail group including Pierre de Wet, James Smith, Aidan McCarthy and Keith Simmons. Further assistance from the bilingual diagrams in the SAR Handbook on the Steam Locomotive for Enginemen and Running Shed Staff, and from the online Afrikaans-English dictionary at <http://www.websters-online- dictionary.org/definition/Afrikaans-english/index7.html>. Notes: Repair books tend to be written in a hurry by drivers at the end of their shifts, using whatever writing implement was to hand. In addition drivers may not be particular- ly literate or good at spelling, and may use colloquialisms. Thus translating such a document is not easy and there have been one or two times when I have had to make a guess at what was written. However, in 99% of cases I think the general meaning has been clear. Key: ??? or Illeg. implies that there is a word or words that cannot be deciphered. Text in red remains in Afrikaans for lack of a translation. Text in blue is comment by me. Implications: As one correspondent commented, most of the minor problems will be sorted during the normal processes of restoration but the references in the later pages to serious leakage from stays or foundation ring rivets on the rear left of the firebox need to be taken more seriously. I think ‘klinknaels ‘ means rivets rather than stays (= ankers) but drivers might have used the term indiscriminately. -

302 MCDONALD ON A PNEUMATIC BALANCED SLIDE-VALVE. [Selected (Paper No. 2689.) “Note on a Pneumatic Balanced Slide-Valve.” By JOHNMCDOXALD. BALANCEDvalves of a variety of types, for locomotive and other engines, have been before the engineering world for many years. Many of them have, however, failed to give satisfactory results, as is testified by the fact that their adoption has been restricted to experimental trials. The valve described in this Paper, being in actual use on various classes of locomotives with good results, may be considered as beyond the experimental stage. The constructionand action of the valve as applied to loco- motive-engines will be understood from the diagram, Fig. 1. Fig. 1. MCDONALDPNEUNATIC BALANCED VALVE AS FITTED ON ENGINENo. 146 I. G. R. OF JAPAN. Into the back of an ordinary valve V a sliding crown F is fitted. If this crown bemade rectangular, the Author finds the U-shaped form shown inthe Fig, to be satisfactory. If the sliding crown or crowns be made circular, ordinary Ramsbottom packing-rings may be employed. On the admission of steam, the back-pressure throws the crown against a plate fitted to the back of the steam-chest cover, or this plate can be cast in the cover ; and the valve with its crown moves backwards and forwards, with a pressure on its lower face dependent on the pressure of the live steam and the difference between the area of the crown of the Downloaded by [ University of Sussex] on [13/09/16].
